[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kid is panicking because “everyone” is applying and the application is due tomorrow and they did not ask for teacher recs or download the application yet or anything. I don’t believe there’s any requirement at our HS beyond GPA and paying a hefty fee. My child has the GPA (4.0 unweighted, something like 4.6 weighted? as a junior in a magnet program) but I’m trying to convince them that their transcript and other parts of their “resume” will speak for themselves. They do not have a lot of other ECs (a varsity sport, very part time job), but as an excellent student who’s aiming for probably T40-75 schools, they don’t need to play the silly NHS game, do they?[/quote] No applications were decided on the basis of NHS status or not. Private schools don't even have them. They're nice to have but pretty forgettable and meaningless in the grand scope of holistic admissions. Please tell DC not to worry or panic.[/quote]
