| That's a tough one - is your son going to have a personal interview? If so, it might become apparent then. Or, he might turn a negative into a positive by writing his personal essay on how he copes. I think that would be pretty impressive to an admissions officer. My other thought is that if your son discloses and is not accepted (despite the fact that you feel he is qualified), maybe you wouldn't want him at that school anyway?
By the way, for those who think an internship takes away from time to take credited classes, some school give credit for internships. My son was a communications major and did a whole semester in the broadcasting booth with the Red Sox announcer (who also taught at the school). He received credit for that internship. It never hurts to ask, anyway. |
