[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a place that reports how many students from each country attend each school? Being evaluated as an international is worrisome with much lower admit rates. DC would like to toss a few applications at places where our country of residence is not represented. [/quote] This is the wrong way to go about it. Unless you are in Namibia or someplace totally obscure, this is not a good tactic. If a university has never accepted someone from your international school, your DC is going to need to apply ED because they are an unknown quantity. Maybe that is okay with you? If not, and your DC wants to gain various acceptances and decide where to go after RD, you need to start with the secondary school profile of recent matriculations in the last 5 years, where did the kids get accepted/where did they enroll? That should be the start of your list. The universities on that list know your school, and are familiar with the educational quality etc.[/quote]
