[quote=Anonymous]I sincerely doubt her name had anything to do with it. My DD is Caucasian with similar stats/ECs/rigor to OPs DD, and she was rejected (as expected) by UVA and waitlisted by VT. She did not apply to W&M but outside of ED (and maybe even then) I’d have considered that a reach. Those outcomes aren’t a disadvantage or a bias…they’re reasonable college admissions results given the student profile in question. DD is attending an OOS private that gave her $30k/year in merit. Still more than in state, but not by so much that we can’t make it work. And if we hadn’t been able to, she’d have gotten an excellent education at either VCU or GMU, both of which also offered her merit. [/quote]
