[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]VISI doesn't seem to be doing very well in college matriculations this year. Not sure what is going on. They have always been just a bit stronger than SR. On Instagram right now with about a third of their class posting so far, only 10% of the are heading T20 USNWR schools. Typically they end up around at least 20%. SR is currently at 14% with some athletic recruits going to Yale and Princeton and other non-recruits to Michigan and Notre Dame. I heard at VISI a lot of girls got shut out of Vandy this year...apparently big surprise/disappointment in college admissions there.[/quote]

I really hope parents are not choosing between Visi and SR based on misleading/irrelevant statistics about college matriculation.

Let’s look at the same data more carefully:

Out of the 40 Visi girls who have posted, 1 is going to Cornell, 1 to Dartmouth, 1 to Northwestern and 1 to Columbia; the Dartmouth and Cornell admits are athletic recruits.

Out of the 34 SR girls who have posted, 1 is going to Princeton, 1 to Yale, 2 to Michigan, and 1 to Notre Dame; the Princeton and Yale admits are athletic recruits.

Taking out the athletic recruits, one is left with 1 Cornell and 1 Columbia versus 2 Michigan and 1 Notre Dame.

Hardly a meaningful difference!
