My OOS kid only applied to South Carolina. He liked it. He got in but didn't get any merit so it wasn't really considered. Some of the buildings looked tired but there was a campus in the middle of the city. He like this. He would have been very happy there. Have a relative that is going there next year. She is high stats and had other higher ranked options

Why?
University of Tennessee in Knoxville has 68% acceptance rate, Clemson 43%
lol not anymore. OOS is maybe 30%
OOS acceptance @ UTK for 2025 was 23%.
LOL yeah right. Is their wait list closed? Let’s see your citation. If it’s not a press release dated from 05/25 I’m going to laugh even more.
Not PP but why do you care? You really need to tuck your odd jealousy in for whatever kid that is going. Grow up.

Sorry your kid didn't get in.
So their waitlist isn’t closed? You don’t have any sources? Stop trying to mislead people. EA acceptance rates don’t matter.

Your attitude towards UTK is odd. And quite frankly whatever perception you have of this school is outdated. And their waitlist has not started moving yet
You’re trying to convey a false perception based on incomplete information. You said yourself their waitlist hasn’t moved therefore you can’t say what their actual acceptance rate will be. Didn’t they admit tons of kids off the waitlist in previous years due to poor yield?

Not my alma mater, but I will admit that it's probably the best southern football song!
DC1 sings "Take Me Home" and DC2 is humming "Rocky Top" (atm). Still gotta get in. We all really liked Knoxville. So much so, that it's made our short list of places to (potentially) retire except DC2 said we'd have to wait til they graduate!
PP here. I have family members who have retired there. They LOVE it! Same for Chattanooga.

I’d add FSU. Feels southern too, gorgeous campus. Same kids apply to it and schools you mentioned. Clemson limits some major admits (like business) so can be tricky depending.

If you are interested in politics, I was able to to intern/be a research assistant at the SC legislature all through college (the Capitol building was closer to my dorm than some of my classes). Plus there is a ton of research funding available for honors thesis projects. Just a few things to consider.
