[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Georgia Tech has a 6% admission rate for OOS.  My son's friend at a top private, with a 4.0 UW and 1580 SAT, was just deferred.

U Washington and Wisconsin might be reasonable reaches. [/quote]

Not Washington, but maybe Wisconsin . . . .

Neither.  Both have gotten more competitive.    I have two kids in Engineering - not CS - but good safeties for them were University of Arizona, University of Minnesota, Pitt and even Penn State.  I have also found the College Confidential forums to be very helpful with this.  Check there and good luck.  I would also tell him - if he can be motivated to enter some coding competitions - Congressional App Challenge is a good one.  Or to try to develop his own apps/tools/websites.  Non-profits can be a great place to start. [/quote]

Thank you for this information.  Arizona, Penn State, and Pitt are definitely good ones to add.  I will check out College Confidential.  [/quote]

Apply to Pitt before school starts in the fall an he'll likely hear back in the first two weeks of September.[/quote]
