[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boston College, Mary Washington [/quote] Boston College (24%--and many will be coming from Jesuit schools) is a very tough admit so I wouldn't consider it a 'target'. [b]The average ACT score composite at Boston College is a 34[/b]. The 25th percentile ACT score is 33, and the [b]75th percentile ACT score is 35. [/b] For my kid last year (but he was International relations): Targets were GW, American, WM (33% acceptance), Villanova. GW did offer him the Presidential merit award which took $25k off. We love BC, but a choice in-state WM or BC --we'd go with WM due to outrageous cost of BC. Best of luck! [/quote] DP with a college freshman admitted to BC and UVA/VT/W&M. If cost is a factor, and it sounds like it is for OP, BC should not be on your list. BC is a great school, and I think there are some interesting parallels with W&M. Our family just wasn’t in a position to pay double the COA of DC’s in-state options. [/quote]
