[quote=Anonymous]Wish that I had not bothered filling out the CSS and FAFSA. We have too many assets that we would have been expected to drain. Zero FA, only merit aid from Santa Clara and USC, plus a few others. Wasting $85 on the UNC-Chapel Hill app. My kid was very high stats but they prefer certain high schools and/or legacies. My kid was in neither of those categories. Wish we would have spent the ED chip more strategically. Kid was deferred, then rejected in RD round. It was one school which doesn’t have much difference in acceptance rates between ED and RD. Wish I had researched more re: UVA’s A&S Gen Ed changeover to “Engagements.” Fortunately, my kid was able to switch to Disciplines pathway last year so more APs could be used up and course listings would be more palatable to employers. I don’t think that changing pathways is option for current classes and beyond. Kid is very happy there, so it doesn’t really matter, I guess. [/quote]
