[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Va Tech might have alienated a lot of kids and parents who thought they had a good shot at getting admitted with this pre-Christmas "soft rejection." Why send the notification to everyone? I'm the parent of a Va resident applicant with 1510 SAT, 4.3 GPA and completed/taking 12 AP courses (only courses left in the school for them to take that build on previous STEM courses) with 5 x AP test 4s and 5s (none lower) including a 5 on AP Calc. Not admitted yesterday although two friends from another HS with lower SAT/ACT scores were, and now wondering what they're looking for as a STEM candidate. Just a very unpleasant surprise for all of us.[/quote]

VT does yield protect.  I've read students with above 1500s SAT get rejected, because they tend to go to other schools.[/quote]

Utter BS plenty of kids fit in with no score. My neice her bf and many others my neighbor.

Other forums have plenty of acceptances.

Two different things. Yes, they do accept high stats kids, and yes, they do Yield protect. If you have been reading posts here or had a high stats kid or a TJ kid or their friends apply and get waitlisted/rejected, you know they DO yield protect. [/quote]
