[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fcps 4.1 and 1380 sat here. Waitlisted for tech.

Things that didn’t help:

One of the top fcps schools
Not urm 
Not first Gen
Male applying to business school

Otherwise everting else fit. Varsity sports captain, 8 APs and everything else honors. [/quote].

Too bad your kid is graduating from Fairfax.  If he was graduating from Clarke or Fauquier he would be in.

Not necessarily. PP shared this site that breaks out admissions rates by county. Fairfax admission rate was 42.5%. Clarke=50.7%, Fauquier=45.3%. So, a little higher but not a lot.

It all comes down to major. The admit rate to the Business School for a not URM, not 1st gen, in-state male was 22.7% last year. Just a few years ago the admit rate was >50%.  But, if you lived OOS would likely be in -- the OOS admit rate for that profile is 66.2% but yield is low.
