My DC from magnet had 4.9 GPA, 1580 SAT, 10+ AP, all 5s.  Had something like 62 credits going into college.

CS major, cisgender, white male, zero hooks, - rejected at UIUC, and wait listed at Mich.

CS major is very very competitive even for high stats students.  So, unless your DC is a DEI or has some other hook, some of those colleges will be a reach.

Having stated that, [b] I would look at Vtech over UVA.[/b]  My DC was considering VTech but UVA wasn't even on their radar.[/quote]

Except that 80% of all students change their major at least once. UVA is by far the better school for that [/quote]
ok, but a CS major is most likely not going to go into public policy.  They will stay within a STEM major, most likely, and VTech is still better for most STEM majors than UVA.

We don't live in VA.[/quote]

Virginia Tech students take buses to a strip mall to teach themselves calculus at kiosks. That’s the intro math program there.[/quote]
