Mind sharing DC's GPA (UW/W), SAT/ACT and ECs? Thanks!

3.5/4.0, 1460, Robotics (programming team) and tennis were his focus for ECs


Those are great college outcomes for his profile, especially for CS! Congratulations!

+1 Also check with VCU, GMU, Mary Wash, ODU, Radford. See where late apps will be accepted if past the deadline. If VT is desired, start at Radford then transfer.

Where are the A-/B+ students applying? Good kids with good stats, but not the brainiacs?


Did your son apply ED?

+1. Especially if you are full pay.

Tulane, Wake Forest, SMU, Bucknell, U Miami, Syracuse


Wake Forest doesn’t belong in this group, their acceptance rate is going to be around 15 percent this year.

Weird time of year to be asking this.

If they want LAC: Dickinson, SMCM, Conn, Juniata.

Large publics might include Pitt, Penn State or U of Delaware.

Me again. I think it also depends on what classes the kid took to get the A-/B+. My kid has 13 APs/DEs including Calc 3, so did take a rigorous courseload. My husband and I also went to VT.

Where else has you child applied/been accepted?
