[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DS is graduating from his safety today (UMD) with honors. He has a great job offer and loved the final 3 years of school (first year on-line was a little tough). He told his public-school (MCPS) guidance counselor in 11th grade, that UMD would be fine. There are bright students at every school.[/quote] Just want to flag for parents of current high schoolers that many people would not advise thinking of UMD as a safety, for anyone, in this day and age. Life was different four years ago. (And many of us have stories of really accomplished students who were unceremoniously rejected from UMD in the last year or two.) And I suppose this is also reason enough to remind students to make sure they don't get over-confident about what a safety is. Applying to several safeties is also smart.[/quote]
