UVA also takes a lot of AP credits which also helps improve the graduation rate. For example, an Engineering CS student can use AP psychology credit to fulfill the humanities requirement, even though UVA's psychology program is nationally renowned.

Yeah, I was going to say this. Compare to UMD, CA schools etc. People there have trouble getting classes even in their major. Not knocking those schools, but it’s not as much of an issue at UVA.

Not particularly. As I said, I am not even sure DC will apply. And if they do and are rejected, they will deal with it.

Good. Because your kid still has half of high school left and it’s kinda funny that it’s still September and you already know that he’s going to ace all of his AP classes. I wouldn’t start worrying just yet about whether he’ll have trouble getting all of the classes he wants at UVA.
I am not worried. Just doing my research.
