[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the majors she's interested in, VA Tech is a much better choice than William and Mary. I would think that with her grades, and an essay that mentions her autism, she could get into Tech. How does she (and you) feel about her going far away, given her disability? I would think a school within 2-3 hours might be of interest. Another school that's not too far with good environ. sci and physics would be Pitt. [b]I think the PPs on this thread that are recommending SLACs are not paying much attention to her interests. SLACs will not have the majors that she wants[/b].[/quote] This is patently not true-every SLAC has physics and music, most have environmental science. And a commitment to undergraduate research that a kid doesn't have to be savvy and socially adept to maneuver into. Most SLACs have a higher per capita placement in STEM graduate programs than any other institutions. [/quote]
