[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everyone should look at the Virginia Community College System in Virginia if their goal is to go to a "top tier" Virginia and their demographics do not meet the social justice goals of a terribly broken college admissions system. My son had a 4.4 GPA, 1550 SAT, is an Eagle Scout, 3 sport athlete, basketball team captain, played the violin in the orchestra, 12 AP classes for 62 college credits, top 5 percent of his class...  He was not accepted to VT or UVa engineering.  He applied to a safety school, but decided he didn't want to go there and wanted to go to VT. VCCS has GAA, Guaranteed Admissions Agreement with all state schools. He showed up to VCCS as a sophomore (because of AP credits) and will qualify in 1 year to go to UVa and VT. He will show up to one of them next fall as a junior.  F the admissions office. They are all run by social justice warriors and are letting people in for the wrong reasons. GAA takes the woke admissions office out of the loop. [/quote]

This was a BS decision made by fools and I’m sorry your kid (and your family) went through that, he sounds amazing [/quote]

Thank you.  He is doing great.  BTW, he actually had a 4.7 GPA.

Just want to point out VCCS to people so they know about how good of a deal it is.  In a lot of ways, it could be better than going direct to college, especially in his case.  There are a lot of people that could avoid the mess that is the college admissions office and go where they want.[/quote]
