[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These threads always devolve into public college parents throwing temper tantrums. Every time. Maryland is a very good flagship with a 40 percent acceptance rate, I’m sorry that triggers you.[/quote] Not really. Last cycle DC graduated from Blair Magnet with 1 B in their entire academic career. Top ECs and leadership. NMSF (dime a dozen at Blair Magnet, 42 out of 105 students in fall 2024). Applied UMD-CP EA. Got in, but not in Honors College, which meant did not qualify for Banneker-Key or any other significant merit aid. Did a lot better with top privates. Accepted in multiple T-10 and T-20 schools, some with with merit aid. Recruited athlete with merit aid at a T-10. Full ride at a T-20 (selection rate 0.02% from applicants). But again, no merit aid at UMD-CP. [/quote]
