[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If considering VT & UVA, encourage him to take multi-variable calculus (if offered) in addition to Calculus BC. It really will depend on the caliber and number of students applying from his high school.[/quote] This - but he is only competing with other E School applicants from his HS. Most places put engineering school applicants in a separate bin for admissions purposes - and most colleges directly admit to the e school, but often (not always) students can choose their major within engineering. Need to explore each candidate school to determine precisely how they do it. Apply to UVA and VT certainly, but have safeties. For in-state, if son's desired major is offered, then I would look also at GMU, VCU, CNU, and ODU. If GMU, I would urge that he live in an on campus university dormitory at least for first year.
