Did of interested junior daughter. Thanks. Nice to get a rational response. Grateful.

Engineering majors can be successful coming out state unis. Engineering is in demand. They can also be successful coming out of #313 school. Proof? Swarthmore.

Looking forward to this dimwit losing interest.

Come back after your kid’s admitted to Swarthmore.
The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

My kid isn’t applying to Swarthmore. Poor dope.

Then don’t worry until you get there. Not everyone gets into S. It’s kind of like a junior worrying about a Harvard engineering program. Come back after your kid gets in first.

But to get in in the first place you have to show that you are a good fit through essays. Add in the commitment if you get in ED plus the cost of applying to each school and it’s totally normal to discern fit before you even apply.

That’s like worrying about a program before getting into Harvard or Yale. Actually, in your case, don’t come back here until your kid is in.

Do you think you randomly end up at Harvard or Yale? By your logic, there’s no point in those schools offering tours for prospective applicants.
