[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. But he wants to. He is targeting 2 ivies and 2 t20’s. if that fails and he gets in the UK universities he is going.[/quote]
This is one of the smartest approaches I've read about. We're all over the map with a list of 20+ colleges as of now from UF to Harvard. Casting a wider net may be a good idea because of lottery like results, but it'd be so much better for the mental health to have 8'ish apps on your list that you're really excited about and fit in your budget. 
I'm curios which 4 US universities are on his list. And, thanks for the tour insights! [/quote]

Thanks. HE really wants to go abroad, but given the opportunity at some of the reach US schools he is applying to, he would stay.
He is applying to Wharton, Cornell (Dyson), UC Berkeley, NYU and USC’s WBB program. If got in any of these, he would likely stay. If he got in NYU and one of the UK ones, it would be toss up for him. He is also applying to Bocconi and a couple of other US lower ranked US schools just in case.
For his subjects (Business/Mgmt/Econ) he has put together this ranking for him. He has been studying these schools for a while now and have now visitied every single one.

1. Wharton
2. Cornell
3. USC WBB program
4. UCB
5. Oxford
6. NYU/St Andrews
7. Bocconi
8. Edinburgh/Durham/Exeter
9. All other US t35-t75 schools.[/quote]
Thank you. This is a great approach.
Wishing your son the best![/quote]
