[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are planning to send our DD to a local Catholic girls' school. but I can see why as a middle class kid at a non-parochial Catholic girls' school, she would seem like a dime a dozen to colleges. Still, there are colleges dime a dozen kids go to and thrive at. We are focused on the experience she will have now, in a sisterhood hopefully, with what looks to be a good curriculum and lots of activities. Hopefully, she will have a good journey to adulthood and a good foundation. But I'm not kidding myself that the Catholic girls education is going to give her any kind of 'unusual' boost to college.[/quote]

It helped my son.  He had the same stats and even lesser stats as his friends in public school and was offered full ride at UMD in addition to getting into his first choice top school.  His friends in public got into UMD, but didn't get merit and also did not get into their top choice school even doing ED.  Lots more competition within a public school...especially the "good" public schools.[/quote]

No Catholic schools do not do better at college admissions than MCPS or FCPS
'There are zero stats to back up  your outcome zero.

My kids came out of MCPS they got full rides at UMD.
They also got full rides at better schools.
UMD is also a school that takes like 35% from OOS so you have no idea what you are talking about none.[/quote]
