[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just curious, my kids and their cousins are very similar in terms of stats - AP/honors classes, athletes but not recruited, 1400-1500 range on SAT, full pay, but their cousins are from middle of nowhere rural America. Her kids are planning to apply to places like Georgetown, Pomona, UVA… my kids are being told UMD CP is a reach and to apply places like Denison and JMU. I need a reality check. [/quote] Colleges love to boast having students from 50 states or 100 countries and such but geographical diversity certainly has real value as well, gives you new perspectives, makes you more tolerant and helps you grow in ways you wouldn’t have if you are attending local college with all the kids from your old high school.[/quote]
