<p>I’m in no way condoning what the interviewer did to your daughter, but the Jefferson scholars that I knew at UVA were all amazing people, going on to Peace Corps or winning Fulbright scholarships as well as being amazing leaders at UVa. I don’t know how the interview process works, and I’m sure there’s unnecessary weed out, but they end up with an amazing group of young men and women. I hope your daughter will reconsider UVa, but I understand if she doesn’t. I ended up not applying to UMD and UDel because they wouldn’t accept the old version of the SAT, which is clearly a much lesser reason than your daughter has.</p>
