[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, this thread should probably be done. [b]From what I can tell, you are looking for a brag list for your DC, even if they are not. [/b]

It's always risky if a college admission is conditioned on physical health, whether it is a service academy or a sports team. Sounds like your DC has options if they are no longer able to enroll in a service academy. Astute parents and college counselors ask student athletes, "if you are no longer on the team, would you still want to attend this college?" If the answer is no, then kid needs to plan accordingly.

Again, it sounds like your DC has options if they do not attend the academy. If they do not like the state school, then they can work hard and transfer. Maybe even to Auburn.

I said multiple times I'm not looking for a brag list, or to rag on Auburn for being "inferior yet rejecting him." I'm concerned something will happen physically to him between now and June, and as of right now, he has no other acceptances. Sure, he's not worried, but that's because he's an optimist. [/quote]
