[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forgot to add. Kid now has a 3.9+ at said SLAC as a junior. Is involved in several ECs in College. Has interned for two US Senators and a Public Interest Org. Sometimes you just gotta give a kid a chance. Look at SLACs, more holistic I think

That's wonderful congrats to your kid. How did they go from a 3.3 at a top private to 3.9+ at a top LAC by the way?[/quote]

So she had a high-ish ACT (32/33) depending on super score.  I think SLACs are more holistic.  Really good ECs n high school.  Pandemic helped--colleges were scrambling that year with the deferrals.  She was wait listed where she is now and got in pretty early over the Summer.

She got into to one other top SLAC and William and Mary right away and was deciding between the two when the other SLAC came through.  She grabbed it.  Now I have to pay double the tuition lol.  But she loves the school.

Honestly, I think it was the SLACs being holistic, full pay, really good ECs, ACT around there average or slightly better, etc. Had a lot going for her other than GPA.  The private school she came from did not have a history with this SLAC per Naviance. [/quote]
