This. There are thousands of schools that most kids can get into.[/quote]

Sure, but they’re schools at risk of closing. No thanks [/quote]

No, there is a wide gap of 100s of coleges between ivy/ivyplus and colleges at risk of closing. VT iand clemson are not that hard. JMU is even less hard. Elon and Bama are  easier still. None of these are at risk of closing. [/quote]

The PP said “there are thousands of schools that most kids can get into.” No one is talking about schools like Clemson. We are talking about regional publics and smaller colleges, and the truth is many of these schools are on shaky financial ground.

Clemson, VT are competitive. JMU is also getting more selective. Any school worth its salt, is somewhat competitive. It doesn’t mean you have to be a rocket scientist, but you have to get good grades, be involved in extracurriculars, sit for the SATs and prep for them.
