[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think acceptances will rise. Was a [b]bloodbath[/b] at UMD, UNC and UVA [b]for OOS students[/b] whose stats a few earlier would have got them in.

Huh? Then apply in state? 4.0 and 1500 have been getting denied from state schools for at least the past 5 years. Not a recent phenomenon nor a bloodbath. So silly. [/quote]

My kid rejected UMD class of 2029 in state MD had higher GPA and more APs and better ECs than my class of 2024 kid wfo got into UMD out of Churchill.

UVA and UNC unhooked OOS was also very hard.

It leaves kids with 4.5-4.8 in my kids school picking between Pitt, Penn, VA Tech, Towson, Loyola, UDELL, which accepted a lot of W school kids.

VA Tech if no financial aid or merit is a bit cheaper Pitt and Penn and Towson, Loyola are safeties.

So VA Tech is popular.

If turned down VA Tech that UDELL is slowly becoming popular as they give good merit A students and not that far a drive.

Unlike VA some states like NJ, CT, MA, DE and MD only have one flagship in state. VA has three great state schools and even JMU number 4 is decent.

VA Tech is fast becoming the hot school. With common app and better marketing to OOS they are greatly increasing applications.

NYU, Villanova, Georgetown, Fordham, Syracuse, Boston College, Wake Forrest where a high GOA  went in past who just missed IVY league are all nearing 100k a year making places like VA Tech seem like a bargain.
