[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. I'm disappointed for my child who has perfect grades, perfect scores (ACT-presidential scholar candidate, 5s in 5 APs, 800 in 3 subject tests), strong ECs with leadership, and completed a prestigious summer program at Yale. [b]Admitted to UMD Honors[/b], but no B-K. Yes, I was expecting it for no reason other than me foolishly thinking how can it look any better? [b]Deferred from[/b] Yale EA, Michigan, [b]Virginia[/b]. Ivy day and the rest of March looks very bleak. I can't help but to think the recommendations were weak or that college counselor approved weak essays. It's a crapshoot, it's random---until it's your child then it feels very personal and very lonely. [/quote] To the posters who complain that UVA is less generous than UMD with merit aid, here's your explanation. They get better applications, so they don't have to buy students. [/quote] I am curious. Why are you here?[/quote]
