[b]Kids applied to many schools because they want to make sure they get to one of them[/b].  It does not mean they want to brag that how many they get acceptance.  Everyone knows every kid can go to only one school.  If kids got accepted into more than one schools, it does not mean kids want to brag or improve their self-esteem or "me me me".   Your son applied to seven schools and what happen if all seven of them accepted him.  Is this meant your son wants to brag? Or is your son being "me me me"? [/quote]Exactly. This is my first child applying, so I don't have any reference points. DD has applied to 14 schools. Accepted at 9, rejected at 3, waitlisted at 1, waiting to hear from one. Didn't get any reaches so far, in spite of being an URM female, full pay, great SATs.
As full pay, we also need to check out [b]merit aid[/b]. The NPC may say we can pay 63k a year, but that is really tight especially given future cost increases, and the fact that DCTAG runs out of money some years. The merit money is all over the place, from full tuition to 20% tuition[/quote]
