[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like a great kid. But 3.8 may not get you the “more elite” schools with which you are obsessed. He likes uva. UVA is strong. And relatively cheap.[b] It’s like you’ve won the lottery - why are you messing with this?[/b][/quote] +1 He might just not like other schools. UVA has a relatively unique student body size among the T30. Look at the USNWR T30 and rank them based on 2026 undergraduate class size. Only four schools fall between 10,000 and 30,000. If he likes that just right size, he’s looking at Cornell, USC, UNC, and UVA. USC and Cornell are dramatically different from UVA on other metrics. I just don’t see the point in pushing him if he’s likely to get in ED. In the age of 10+ college apps, why not let him be one and done?[/quote]
