[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This question is for my HS class of 2025 kid. Very strong student in a Maryland public HS (16 AP/IB, ~4.9 WGPA, 1550 SAT) but weak ECs (school clubs and dabbles in music). Wants to study engineering. Only wishes to apply to a handful of schools. We are advising to choose one top school as a reach (e.g. Cornell, GA Tech) and schools like UMD, Purdue, UIUC for targets/safeties. We think kid may be able to get some merit aid at UMD. Cost is not a concern. Is there a smaller engineering school that anyone recommends? Preferably one where someone has a student there now or has a recent grad.[/quote] With that profile, he should consider applying to Stevens Institute of Tech, Drexel and Pitt. All would be safeties and he will get merit at the first two, maybe also at Pitt. [/quote]
