[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Yeah it is a tough call between trying early at the Ivy or maybe trying a school early like UChicago/Hopkins/NYU/Georgetown. I actually think my kid will blow it out of the park in college since the sports road is ending and the kid is a wizard and managing time and studying efficiently so they will fit in a lot of stuff. But I recognize that almost recruited level isn't special when you are reading it...but as a parent I can say it is pretty special the level of time and dedication and grit it takes to give it a go, even if it doesn't work out.[/quote] The way you describe your kid is more or less like my kid who got into an Ivy in RD and was legacy. We never donated anything at all. What role did the legacy play? Who knows. Maybe it was a tie-breaker - we will never know. One advice - do not waste your early attempt on Georgetown, their REA gives no advantage whatsoever. Good luck! [/quote]
