[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just looking at some instagrams of some high schools and see so many students heading to public schools out of state. While I absolutely understand why students would choose UVA, VT, W&M, UMD, etc if you are in state, why would you pick schools like Penn State or Clemson?[/quote] Because you can't get into your top state schools. [/quote] This. Have you looked at some of the results on this board? On the VT waitlist thread someone whose kid had a 4.2 GPA and 1500+ (sorry, I can't remember the exact score) SAT did not get into VT. What's a 3.8 1400 SAT student going to do? Also some kid's don't want to stay in state. Some want to go to a specific part of the country.[/quote] Be careful of reading too much into single stat posts like that. I assure you that 3.8 1400 students also DID get accepted to VT.[/quote]
