[quote=Anonymous]Proceed with caution as a CS applicant in today's ultra-competitive admissions landscape. My son, a recent TJ grad with a similar profile (although with a slightly higher GPA and SAT) and strong ECs faced numerous rejections and waitlists from schools that seemed to be matches on paper. Fortunately, he ended up with a few good choices and is happy where he landed, but it was an eye-opening process to be sure. As I'm sure you are aware, many CS programs (e.g. CMU, the UCs etc.) have significantly lower acceptance rates than the universities themselves. Go ahead and aim high, but make sure there are some true matches/borderline safeties in the mix. The three schools mentioned seem to fit the bill.[/quote]
