[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is not applying this year but we are planning ahead to find the right fit. DC is dyslexic and dysgraphic (with an IEP) and is a solid B+ student in mostly regular classes with one or two AP and honors classes thrown in. Taking the ACT practice exams but no scores yet. Wants to focus on earth science and atmospheric sciences. Has a lot of impressive EC activities and athletics, including leadership and professional level paid accomplishments. Plays two sports at the varsity level. Looking at schools like College Park, Virginia Tech, UVA, Rutgers, NC state, and other larger schools that have a BS in earth/atmospheric studies. Are there any smaller colleges to consider that would support a student with this profile? Higher achieving with learning disabilities but not straight A and not a plethora of AP or DE classes yet.

B+ and only a couple AP classes seemed very unlikely for UVA or VT acceptance [/quote]

Op here. DC is a potential D1 athlete as well so that’s why these schools are on the table. [/quote]
