In state deferred

I have mixed feelings. DC is in at Michigan, but was going to feel pressure to go to UvA. I think Michigan wins in every category, but tuition and maybe weather. DC never lived UVA, but applied bc it made sense. Am I bummed, relieved or both?

You realize Maryland also has multiple public universities, right?

Do Maryland high schools weight their HS courses differently? FCPS is +.5 for honors and +1 for AP


Yes, MD HS provide same weight for honors as AP


Arlington doesn’t even weight honors. Weighted GPAs are worthless.

UMD doesn't have space to take all in state apps. VA has multiple schools.
