[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- my DC applied to Pitt(accepted with 40k merit), UMBC (accepted with 36k merit), Fordham (accepted), case western, VA tech and UMD. My DC did not want a very competitive school environment. But I feel maybe should have pushed him to aim slightly higher[/quote] It's a nice list for a STEM major. If he is applying for CS or engineering I wouldn't aim any higher, but maybe if biology or something else. I see no need to apply anywhere else, what is he looking for that you don't see in this list of colleges?[/quote] Thanks. I think the list is fine. His friends and random kids said ‘meh’ to his list as they are applying to Ivy schools and T-20. I prepared him for this, but he is a kid and is feeling a little disappointed. I feel like maybe I should have pushed him to look at more selective schools. But not sure why, as he had no intention of going there. I guess just to appease some people.[/quote]
