[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those who are undecided on StA, what other schools are in the mix? [/quote]

For my kid: Bates, Wisconsin, Northeastern, UVM, UCSC, UCSB (waitlist), Boulder, DU. [/quote]

My kid is also deciding between CU Boulder (in-state, direct admit to BS Computer Science within the College of Engineering and Applied Science, $16k scholarship), UBC Vancouver (Faculty of Science), and St Andrews (BSs Biology, Hons).

He just got his St Andrews offer earlier today. We visited last summer and fell in love with the place. He applied in September and we've spent the last six months in suspense. He applied for a joint degree with computer science but I later discovered that it's next to impossible to get admitted for that particular joint degree (source: https://www.admissionreport.com/university-of-st-andrews/bsc-biology-and-computer-science). That said, from what I recall, depending on what classes he takes, he could still earn that joint degree (someone please correct me if I'm wrong on that).

I just hope the exchange rate holds up. When I got my master's from Oxford 20 years ago, it was 1.85 dollars per pound. Painful. Is there anyone here from the future? If so, please advise. [/quote]
