[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Son’s classmate got into Cornell and UVA. Waitlisted at Tech. [/quote] Why is this surprising? This is why sometimes people get turned down for being overqualified for a job. The schools try to accept kids they think will actually attend the school. If they admit all high stats kids, they'll be under enrolled. Waitlist allows them to see [b]how many of the high stats kids withdraw [/b]and use that to judge which ones are really interested. [/quote] Except this year, VT will have probably zero high stats kids to choose from. Now their ranking (whatever your source) will plummet, and fewer high ranking students will bother applying in the future. Is that what VT wants? Also, is the VA public college/uni system looking to give white kids NO options - because if that happens, there will be big lawsuits. You can't say "we want 90% first generation". It doesn't work that way. Look at what happened to TJ. [/quote]
