This is a great thread. My son went to an elite college, my daughter is not the same type of student. She had almost the same stats as the person mentioned in the original post. I felt so alone :-)

She actually got in everywhere she applied...all state schools and two private LAC's. Belmont Abbey College and Guilford College. She absolutely fell in love with BAC, with great financial aid, etc. Like many other less competitive schools, it also has an Honors Institute to attract A students.

The point is the same as everyone else here...there are many schools out there for the average student. It would be GREAT however, if a part of this forum could be dedicated to those schools. Parents and students check this forum not only for "What are my Chances?", and Stats. We also check for inside information. It would be great if students and parents from these lesser-known schools would give their input as well.
