[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know anything about the school.  But it's been recommended to my step son by his guidance counselor.  Here's the thing...he barely has a 2.1 and got somewhere between 1600-1700 on his SATs.

Guidance counselor said he would probably not be able to get into Salisbury or Towson, but could get into Frostburg.  UMCP and UMB are completely off the table.

So what I take away from knowing this one child to whom this school is being recommended is that it can't be a strong academic school.[/quote]

I thought on your earlier post (22:44) you said he had the stats. With 2.1/1600-1700, you can take UMDCP, UMBC, Pitt, UDel, VT off the table. I'd also reconsider his plan to major in engineering. Has he considered going to CC for two years and then to transfer? It will be cheaper for sure and also give him a couple more years to mature.[/quote]

I don't OP was the one with a child having a 2.1 GPA etc. That was another poster talking about her step son.[/quote]
