[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do I transfer my DC from Yorktown to W-L or Wakefield!? Seriously, competition to get into state schools like George Mason can be tough for students who do well (As and Bs) but don't take AP classes and don't score well on SATs. My DC feels as if only option is to start a NoVA CC. [/quote] And that's a fine option. My Wakefield graduate started at NOVA and is now at GMU. There are many pathways, including the 2+2 guaranteed admission (2 years NOVA, meeting the pre-requisites, guaranteed admission to GMU). In fact, there are such agreements for most of the Virginia state schools and therefore more options than GMU. If your child gets As and Bs, perhaps they should consider trying an AP class or two in one of their stronger subjects. It's ok to get a B in an AP class, and it demonstrates their willingness to take challenging courses.[/quote]
