[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]As an April baby[/b] I graduated high school two weeks after my 18th birthday. I remember being ecstatic to fly the nest and go to college that Fall. I was a relatively shy and introverted teenager who got on really well with my parents but I was ready to move out at 18! I really would have struggled if I was redshirted and forced to postpone that rite of passage for a year. [/quote] You were already older than 2/3 to 3/4 of your classmates, so redshirting you wouldn't have made sense. It's only applicable to kids born between October and December, so this is irrelevant.[/quote] The vast majority of the country has cut off dates that occur near the start of school, Aug-Oct, with Sept 1 being the most common. The places with Dec-Jan cut offs are in the minority, nationally.[/quote]
