[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok I will play. DS accepted to every school he applied to. UMD College Park LEP Business (accepted to scholars) instate, [b]VATech Engineering OOS (not sure of major, keeping options open by applying to the limited enrollment programs)[/b], University of South Carolina and Towson. Towson was the safety, Carolina was the first choice. Towson offered a full ride, UMd gave us 5000 in merit for each year (20,000) VA tech gave 5000 first year no guarentee subsequent years and Carolina gave him instate tuition and he must maintain a 3.4 Gpa. He will be a gamecock come August. Sorry for the typos-ipad[/quote]

Congrats to your DS.  Can you explain something to me?  We toured Va Tech last week and it is our DD's first choice for aerospace engineering.  WE now understand that one has to apply to one of the eight colleges at VA Tech and that it is the most difficult to get into engineering, followed by architecture, interior design and another fourth major highly in demand, etc. etc. and that when applying you can apply to only one of the top four most demanded cikkeges and must list an alternative not of the four in the application.  We understand it is the most difficult to get into Engineering.  DD would probably go ED (yes we understand that is committed) and hope to get in early so to avoid the big December mess of 20 applications to every other school in the universe.  If I am reading your post correctly, you are saying that your DS got into VA Tech Engineering OOS but I don't understand the line about "not sure of major".  What is the "Limited Enrollment Programs"?  We would be applying ED to Engineering for Aerospace Engineering as Virginians.  Thank you.  And Did you apply ED and get deferred?  I understand only 1/8 of the Engineering ED applications are approved and the rest either deferred because VA Tech wants to see more or outright booted.[/quote]
