[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Case Western might be a good likely. Strong in math and a decent music program too.

Oberlin, as you mentioned, very strong in music and students can do both music and academics.

+1 for Case western. He could receive a nice merit scholarship. Demonstrated interest is VERY important![/quote]

How does one do that?[/quote]

You can demonstrate interest in several ways, depending on the school and their offerings. An in person visit (if you can’t get a spot on an official tour, stop by Admissions and ask them to note that you were there.  They might even find you a last minute slot but it will be noted, and that can help with interest). A virtual tour. Sign up for in person or virtual program (there can be many). Sign up for a q&a with a current student if that’s offered.  Engage with their emails, open links.  An interview with an admissions officer is a great way to demonstrate interest however the interviews with alumni do not usually benefit your chances of admission - if you do well, the admissions office interviews are impactful (but not usually required).  Ours interviewed and showed interest for several targets and safeties - felt it helped them with their good results and scholarship offers.  And helped them feel great that there are many schools where they could be happy. [/quote]
