[quote=Anonymous] What is the deal with Elon? I know kids who barely get through high schoool who have gotten in, and another who got into Georgetown, Lehigh, and Colgate, but waitlisted. Anyway, OP, what HS your kid is in also matters, especially if they consider private colleges/universities. My child will graduate with a 3.0 (hopefully) from one of the well-known DC privates. I was quite surprised by the bump that just going to one of these schools gave at pretty strong colleges, including Lehigh, Lafayette, and Bucknell. Still deciding between those and a couple state flagships. I'm not sure that a 3.0 from local public schools would have the same result, would it? Or is it being full-pay that also helps (although, surprisingly, kid also got a lot of merit from one of these schools). [/quote] Thanks for this! Ours will be applying in the fall with a 3.2 from one of the rigorous private High schools in the area and have been very worried.[/quote]
