Thank you all for these suggestions. We’re in MD and lived in NY until he was 10. So will apply to UMD.

First of all, best wishes to all senior parents who are waiting on ED news right now. My son is a junior and we’re starting to get serious about pulling a list together. He’s a straight-A student with 1500 PSAT and rigorous schedule at a top public. He’s a champion debater and strong writer who dabbles in some other creative ECs. Open to various school settings but not excited about anything athlete or Greek-dominated, and would prefer to stay in the Northeast-Mid-Atlantic region, although we also have some family in the Midwest and I think he’d consider that, too. We’re full pay if it matters. He’s thinking about a career in law but not dead-set on it.
