Can more graduating/graduated seniors do "actual results" threads?

Just want to say that she sounds amazing, and her list of schools seems absolutely appropriate.

S24 stats
homeschooled, partial pell-eligible (i.e. needed lots FA), applied to a mix of music and non-music schools (and still deciding which he wants)
southeastern suburb
1490 SAT (780EWR, 710M)
4.0 UW
7 APs (5 through junior year with 4 5s and one 4)
6 DE classes at a university

notes here: his transcript had a very strong tilt toward humanities, and he was clear that that’s what he was interested in studying in college as well…so most APs were in English and social sciences, but he does have Calc AB this year. Some interesting coursework like a 3000 level sociology class in which he was the only high schooler.

ECs
music, music, and more music. He plays French horn at a pretty high level, in two selective local youth ensembles, private lessons, district honor band, etc. Horn stuff took up a lot of his activity list slots (appropriately, since it takes up a lot of his time)

submitted music supplement (or auditioned) everywhere that allowed them (which I think was all except one school)

also piano lessons for 9 years, a bit of community theater, assorted D&D groups that he ran and/or participated in, volunteering at public library

results

auditioned music schools
-ED Vanderbilt/Blair, but only asked to be considered for music school; didn’t pass the prescreen, so that was out very early on
-didn’t pass prescreen for Oberlin Conservatory, so that one was out early as well
-accepted EA to UGA and then later to the music school
-accepted EA to St. Olaf for BA in music performance
-accepted to Lawrence Conservatory for 5 year dual degree program

The EA results shaped the RD list. He had a common app fee waiver, so application fees were not an issue. Since he already had EA schools he was happy with, the RD list was very reach-heavy. Every school had to pass the “is there a realistic chance I’d consider this school over St. Olaf and UGA” test. Every school except Lawrence on the RD list meets demonstrated need, and we focused on need-blind schools (they’re definitely not all need-blind, but if he was deciding between adding two schools to the list, the need-blind one would win)

non-music schools
accepted
Grinnell
Colby
Amherst
Oberlin
Vassar
Hamilton
Emory

waitlisted
Macalester (deferred EA, then waitlisted)
Bates
Kenyon
Brandeis

Rejected
Middlebury
Wesleyan
Williams
Brown
Emory’s Oxford campus

takeaways
-French horn is magical; I think it almost certainly was a huge factor in his admissions. And he’s very good, but he’s not the best, as his conservatory results make clear. I doubt playing at the same level on a more competitive instrument would have worked out as well for admissions
-focusing on need-blind schools was definitely the right strategy. He did significantly better at need-blind schools, even though these were the most selective schools.
-his SAT score didn’t seem to matter one way or the other. He was rejected at schools where it put him near or above the 75th% and accepted at schools where it was below the median (I think it was actually below the 25th% at Emory this year, in fact). We fretted a little about whether to go test optional some places, but ultimately decided it was a high enough score that it was unlikely to be THE thing that kept him out anywhere, and this proved to be the correct strategy. Better to submit the 1490 then let them think he was hiding a 1300 or something. We also figured his EWR was high anywhere, and he was clearly not headed for STEM, so the math score would be less likely to give anyone pause. I’m also glad, in retrospect, that he didn’t spend time working to get the math score up–he likely could have done it, but that time was better spent elsewhere (like practicing horn)

–overall, I’m very happy for him and excited to see where he ends up. I’m still a little stunned by some of the admits. He’s my third kid–the last one was music only, so a whole different game, but his oldest brother applied to a lot of the same schools with a similar transcript (though math heavy instead of humanities) and a significantly higher SAT, but nothing particularly exciting (to colleges anyway) in his ECs. He wound up with plenty of good options, but a lot more waitlists than this kid in the reach category. So I came into this warning him to expect the same kind of thing, and we were blown away by some of the admits (particularly since they mostly came in after the waitlists and rejections at less selective schools)

Here’s the final results for D24. She’s a good student, but not amazing by CC standards!

D24
White/Caucasian
Very good midwest suburban HS

GPA: 3.8uw, 4.4w
Class Rank: N/A
ACT: 31 (34 math, 32 english, 29 science, 28 reading)

EC:
3 year varsity athlete in two different sports.
President of one club
Psychology Internship (basically shadowed a working therapist)
Part Time Job
(more of the usuals)

Essays/LOR: I think they were good, but every parent thinks these are good.

Major:
Psych/Marketing

Applied to:

Reach:
UF: rejected
UGA: deferred EA, accepted RD

Target:
FSU: accepted
UIUC: rejected
Purdue: accepted
tOSU: accepted
Virginia Tech: accepted
UTK: accepted with 13k merit

Saftey:
Utah: accepted
St Mary’s at Notre Dame: accepted with 29k merit

The only surprises were the UIUC rejection and the UGA acceptance. We figured she had a decent shot at UGA because they only consider English and Math for the ACT.

Was a tough decision between UGA and FSU. Really loved the FSU campus and vibe, but it’s harder to get to Tallahassee than Athens. And up here in the North, UGA has a better reputation. She will be attending UGA in the fall- go Dawgs!

Enrolling: UT Austin

Thoughts and Advice:

Honestly, I was kind of disappointing by my results. Georgia Tech was my top choice and I thought I would get deferred but oh well. Also didn’t get any merit from my safeties (although I did get honors, so that was nice). UT Austin was a very welcome acceptance because my family didn’t want to shell out 80k per year and it was the only other reach school on my list which was in the 60k range. I think the reason I got rejected from so many of my reach schools was 1) my GPA and 2) my activities description. My GPA was pretty low compared to previous accepted students at my school; I was hoping that my ECs and essays would have made up for it, but I should have known better. The activities description is also super important. Looking back at them, my activities description for my ECs were pretty weak and I could have written them much more nicely. UT Austin highly recommended a college resume, so I made a resume with much better descriptions and sent it only to UT. I’m pretty sure it was the singular reason why I got in.

Overall, I’m pretty happy with my UT acceptance, and am looking forward to this new stage of my life. Hook 'em! :metal:

Of all the colleges you listed, I think Texas offers the best combination of quality academics and quality of life. I bet you’ll love Austin. It’s probably my favorite college “town.”

Everyone’s stats look so impressive! Mine are closer to average (I think), so I hope I can help others in a similar situation.

Mexican-Filipina-American attending California (Bay Area) public school
Not first gen and didn’t apply for need-based financial aid
Major: Biology

ACADEMIC
Unweighted GPA: 4.00 / Weighted GPA: 4.29 (7 APs in total)
Senior year: 7 classes w/ 4 APs
ELC (top 9% CA HS): Yes
AP courses/exams: AP Lang (3), AP Bio (4), APUSH (5)
NO SAT/ACT

EXTRACURRICULARS:

  • NIH NIDDK STEP-UP Program (paid summer internship at UCSF-probably the best thing I’ve done)
  • XC (4 year) and Track (3 years) Captain
  • School newspaper (a measly student reporter - this was for only a semester)
  • School community-building workshop (1 day long haha)
  • The Bay Foundation (restoration events/essentially picking weeds)

Essays:
Regarding UC PIQs, one was on being XC captain and leading team to win championships for the first time in school history, 2nd on public speaking skills, and last two on my summer internship but from different angles (one about the actual science/the other about the lessons I learned).
Common app was on my internship + passion for scientific research

ACCEPTANCES (I’m between UCSC and UCM):

  • UC Santa Cruz (banana slugs unite)
  • UC Merced (Accepted w/ Chancellor’s Scholars Award!)
  • UC Riverside

Waitlist:

  • UC Santa Barbara (chance of getting off waitlist is pretty high!)
  • UC San Diego (dream school!)
  • UC Irvine
  • UC Berkeley
  • UChicago (Regular Decision)

Rejections:

  • UC Davis
  • UCLA
  • Johns Hopkins (Regular Decision)
  • Stanford

tl;dr my personality is the one UCSF internship I did last summer

As a Bio major, I feel like I’m competing with all the pre-med kids even though I want to go the research route with grad school :frowning:

Advice:

  • Internships are generally better than summer college courses not just for college admissions but for your entire life (just take AP classes during the school year)
  • Waitlists aren’t rejections! Definitely don’t give up hope, but in the meantime you should choose a school to commit to and plan as if you’re going to end up going there. Get excited about that school and visit it!

S23 is very happy at Bowdoin and his choice. Education and professors are top notch. S23 is more focused on STEM type classes although also taking humanities. We had not focused on the Amtrak train which has a stop in walking distance to Bowdoin which is very useful for us. Gym at Colby is super impressive but that wasn’t important in S23 decision. Good luck with the decision! Don’t think you can go wrong.

UW Aerospace is a top-notch program fwiw – named after Boeing!

Unless things have changed, UW doesn’t admit direct outside of CS and students would need to choose their Top 5 majors and go through a competitive process post freshman year. If this still holds then I would think hard before committing to UW.

Here are the results for my DS24;

White/Asian/Mexican
Major: Aerospace (where available), Mechanical Engineering or Physics
GPA: 4.0 Unweighted (All A+ on his transcript)
SAT: 1570 (800 math) taken during sophomore year
Rank: 1/300

AP classes thru junior year: AP US History, AP World History, AP Calc. AB, AP Calc BC, AP Physics 1, AP Physics C: Mechanics, AP Chemistry & AP Lang. Earned a 5 for all.

Senior year: Dual enrollment MV Calc, Linear Algebra & English. Rest were band, jazz, AP Comp. Sci and a physics internship. First semester grades all A+

ECS:

SSP (Astrophysics)
Music took the bulk of his time:
Marching Band - soloist and section leader
Jazz Band - soloist and section leader
3 x all state band and 4 time regional band (1st chair)
Math Team Co-captain and President
Middle School Math Team coach
Class Officer
Model UN (VP)
Authored research proposal to fly his experiment on a NASA Rb-6 balloon (eventually accepted and flown)
Lots of volunteer work - mostly with music and STEM programs.

Awards:
NMF and NM Hispanic Recognition
USAPhO Semifinalist
4 x AIME qualifier (USAMO index of 205)
International Geography Championships (top 10)
Misc. School awards

Results:

Early Action:

Regular:
Northeastern - Waitlisted
BU - Accepted with merit
RPI - Accepted with merit

He hasn’t decided on where he will be attending but he has narrowed it down to BU, Purdue and GT. He was really disappointed with his reaches but was expecting them. So many kids in his grade got accepted to the Ivy League and other top schools and that stung a bit for him but he has great choices and he will be fine!

Waiting:

  • KCL still

Essays/LORs/other: I did a lot of research into each school and referenced specific classes or clubs in all of my supplements that I could, so I’m hoping that will count for me. I also submitted a resumé to the schools which accepted it. My supplements were all a solid 7-8 out of 10.

  • LORs: one from my Latin teacher (9/10), one from my freshman/junior year English teacher (9/10). I don’t really know how to rate them because obviously I haven’t seen them, but my Latin teacher said she wrote “the best letter she could possibly write” and the English teacher is someone I have a fairly close relationship with. Both have taught me for multiple years and know me as a person as well as a student.

  • I also submitted two extra LORs to schools that would take them: one from my middle school GSA advisor who’s known me since seventh grade and is still a mentor to me/someone who I talk to often, and one from the co-founder of the nonprofit I work with. I haven’t seen these either but I would probably guess they’re an 8/10 and a 7/10 respectively.

  • CommonApp essay: 8/10. I wrote about how when I was in middle school I wanted to take my principal’s job because he wasn’t doing a good job handling homophobia at school, then connected it to a broader theme of believing that if something can be better, it should be (and including anecdotes from my summer job and nonprofit fellowship). My English teacher read it over and said she really liked it/my voice was very strong in it so take that as you will.

  • Interviews - I interviewed at Clark (student), URochester (student), Wheaton (AO), Haverford (alum), Smith (alum), Mount Holyoke (student), Vassar (alum), Yale (alum), Princeton (alum), Harvard (alum), Cambridge (current professors), and WashU for Ervin but not for the general school.

Not sure yet where I’ll commit, but these are my results!

Reason is in their CDS. See also screenshot below. common.data.set.2023.24.pdf - Google Drive

If you were my kid, I’d be encouraging you to consider attending Fisk for a few reasons:

  1. it’s in Nashville. This means easier to get to an airport, which helps at winter break & end of the school year.
  2. it’s a smaller school, so that will mean, honestly, less competition for getting access to professors. it’ll also mean your professors will get to know you a lot more and fewer students in each class…more one on one time with professors will help if you decide to pursue graduate school.
  3. Fisk has a lot of special programs to encourage their students of color in STEM areas. There’s a Masters-to-PhD bridge program with Vanderbilt University, for example.
  4. Nashville is a thriving metro area with a lot of fun stuff to do. Also good opportunities for internships.

Here is UW’s page with placement data for the various majors: Placement data | UW College of Engineering

@chuckml97 if UW aero is a top choice for your S24 (not clear from your post), he should look over the placement process and data, and consider whether he’s open to a non-aero major at UW, if he isn’t placed into aero by the process.

I don’t wish to get this thread off topic, just wanted to be sure the poster had relevant data (since the placement process had been mentioned).
