[quote=Anonymous]Assuming those stats are accurate and that the APs are in science and math, I wouldn’t hesitate to apply to any school in the country. Your child has outstanding grades, a near-perfect SAT score, and multiple 5s on AP exams. They’ve earned the opportunity to take a shot at highly competitive schools.

If I were in your position, I’d start by reviewing the U.S. News  rankings for top undergraduate engineering programs. From there, I’d filter based on school size and other important factors to narrow down the best fits. Keep in mind that while many elite universities are highly regarded, not all are known for engineering, so you may want to expand your list accordingly if the name on the university is as important than the engineering education.

People on DCUM often overcomplicate this process. While admissions to schools like Harvard or Yale can feel like rocket science, gaining acceptance to a top engineering program with your child’s stats is much more straightforward.[/quote]
