that is the key for everyone, I think. But I agree - looking for fits for your specific child is so important. I literally spent a year and half in research mode with info changing along the way. I'm just really glad that I was able to help my child find a few schools that might work for her and her needs. Not to mention - schools we should be able to afford


Same.

Our 3.3 GPA student got in at CNU, GMU, Radford, VCU, University of Arizona, North Carolina- Charlotte, WVA so far.
We are waiting for one more EA and 2 RA.


DP, those are good choices. Congratulations to your kid.

We’re waiting on an answer from a small LAC in MA, but we won’t know until March because it involves an arts program. It is my daughter’s first choice. It is well known for its support for neurodiverse students


What school is this (parent of artsy neurodiverse kid)?


Dean. Well known for theatre and dance. But also just down street from the Patriots stadium, so very interesting opportunities for sports management and exercise science students. The Arch program is best known for ND support, but they have many layers of student support. Honestly, their “library” is a huge student support center.


If she is focused on the “artsy” she should have no problem with admittance. It’s a small town and she’ll get to know her peers very well.


She wants to do dance and exercise science. But if she doesn’t get a good enough scholarship for dance, we probably can’t afford it.

UMass isn’t on the radar for this board.


Umass is a great choice! I know families considering it ☺️

Congrats to all of the awesome kiddos, especially the ones who overcame challenges to get here.


Congratulations!! I went to Mount Holyoke but took several classes at Smith and loved both colleges. Prettiest college area in the whole country imo, especially in the fall. The alum network is very strong too.

I haven’t seen any Harvard admissions either. Or MIT but I might have missed it.
