[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make sure you have a few actual safeties like VCU, CNU, etc. Be aware many schools that were safeties a few years ago are not anymore. [/quote] Please, please, please make sure the safeties for your kid are places they actually want to go. Seems like folks treat safeties kind of like public school...if you don't get into target A, well then you are just going to have to go to the local public college. Maybe they love VCU or CNU...that's great...problem solved. However, seems like there are lots of kids and parents that put zero thought into their safeties, and then they are completely unsatisfied with their college acceptances.[/quote] +1 The biggest focus of the research should be the safeties. People who think any school with a >50% acceptance rate must be crap need to open their eyes. For a good deep dive to understand the process, I recommend listening to the Your College Bound Kid podcast. [/quote]
