[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Doing the Coalition App is a PITA, and more essays.  And VT may be the only TJ competitive school that requires coalition. TJ itself isn’t set up for Coalition— transcripts and red letters go automatically to common, and it’s more steps to do Coalition manually.  So, kids have moved to Pitt as their engineering safety.   Everyone gets in. Everyone gets enough merit aid to make it cost less than VT.   And lots of kids like the more urban campus.  Remember that most kids don’t actually plan to attend their safety school. They apply to Pitt. They are are thinking Michigan.

I have a rising senior. He would be applying to VT as a safety, but doesn’t want to deal with the Coalition.  He has several friends applying for engineering.  The only one who is applying VT is the one whose first choice is VT.  She is applying ED and hoping to only have to use the Coalition.

UIUC is also Coalition. Significant # of TJ enrollments.

My kid says the Coalition App was a little more work but no biggie - I realize you have a rising senior and haven't gone through the process - don't worry, TJ handles Coalition apps well. In fact, TJ sent out everything (Common and Coalition) on time with no issues.
