[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1560 SAT. 3.85 UW. 4.6 weighted. A few academic extra currics and one summer job but nothing super impressive. Nice enthusiastic student so recs probably fine.

Accepted to Penn State, UMBC with 10k merit, and freshman connection/spring admit to UMD with no merit nor honors college. Rejected from Hopkins. He didn’t apply to many places. He really put all his eggs into the University of Maryland CP bucket and hopefully it kind of worked out (freshman connection is not ideal because it means he will have to try to transfer into his LEP), but that was a risk.[/quote]

I forgot to add that he went to MCPS. He had a lot of APs and got 5s on most of them.[/quote]

Gosh this is CRAZY. My kid is at UMDCP right now and some of his friends with the same general background - like your kid - were only offered spring admit. That is a crazy amazing kid you have, and to just get into UMD as a spring admit? GOD. I mean, it wont' matter in the long run, but it's so irritating! College applications as the squid games is right (another thread). This sh*t is crazy.[/quote]
