[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Last year or so there was a student on the (insane) Paying for College 101 who arrived on campus the first week of school and within a couple hours realized she had made a big mistake. that FB page rallied with lots of ideas and that kid was in at Agnes Scott living her best life that same week. (my details may be off, but it was def Agnes Scott).

Just saying, things are more flexible than they first appear.

For sure I'd be submitting a few more applications right now that are due 2/1.  But then [b]I'd have a deeper conversation and if you learn new things and have news idea, I wouldn't hesitate to have your daughter call, say, the U of Puget Sound and asked if there's any way they'd accept her late app.[/b] I would not be surprised if they said, sure.  Esp if she was bringing some good (for them) test scores with her.

UMBC seems to be the obvious option, with maybe a WI and RI app (we need more details on what she does like). But then Id look a bit deeper too.[/quote]Totally correct. Any LAC outside of the USNWR T40 will have that conversation until the summer, at least, and many offer both very strong STEM and very generous financial aid, e.g., Kalamazoo, Wooster, Lawrence.[/quote]
