[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi all! Thanks for the input. Not STEM, but econ (if Colgate) or finance (if Lehigh/BC.) Reasonably high stats -- 3.92 unweighted, but mixed in with all those As is a C+ in APUSH in 11th, ughhhhh. 1500 SAT. Has consistently taken the most rigorous classes, great ECs, essays and rec letters should be strong.

We go back and forth between applying ED1 to Lehigh and probably nailing it down and being done, vs. shooting their shot at BC and Colgate -- for some reason Colgate is a tough admit from our school; 0/7 last year and 1/11 the year before.  TBH I don't think Colgate is a great fit anyway, but for some reason my son is enamored with it. We are full pay so that helps at need-aware Colgate, I guess.[/quote]

Full pay is a big help at any one of those three schools. [/quote]
My 1500 full pay kid was denied at Lehigh two years ago. Yield protection or not (prob not, because he had mediocre grades). 1480 full pay kid WL at BC. While obviously full pay doesnt hurt, it is not as significant as some think.[/quote]
