The best ones they can afford.
A large percentage of the magnet students go to UMD.

If you're considering whether to send your student to Blair based on where recent graduates have gone on to college, please just stay at your home school. The magnet is awesome in itself and Ostrander doesn't focus on where kids go after. Just choose a high school for its own sake.

This is reliant on student self-reporting and may or may not be true
Any listing of where a given high school's students attend college is reliant on student self-reporting.

Is UMD one of the 10 universities Blair graduates are accepted to and attend? What other colleges do they attend?
Blair SMCS students are top feeders to MIT, CMU, UC Berkeley, Cornell, Georgia Tech, JHU, UMich and UIUC traditionally. Typically 70%+ SMCS students will use UMD as their safe schools. That's not going to be the case in the future. For example, none of the 11 MIT offers from the latest graduation class came from a DCC student.
+1 Doesn’t make sense to cut the applicant pool by 1/6 and mess with a highly successful model.
I meant, reduce applicant pool to 1/6, not cut by 1/6

From where did they come then if not from DCC students?
