Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply. We will look at UMass Amherst. For some reason she ruled at UM College Park but I’ll have to investigate that more. She is interested in food safety and possibly public policy related to food quality and labelling. She is very passionate about food waste and volunteers many hours at food pantries.
I am confused as to how it will work with Cornell because I read the CALS is test blind this upcoming year. How would they evaluate her if her ACT isn’t utilized?
She may take the ACT one more time but she’s so busy with research, volunteering, and keeping her grades up that I dont know if she will have time. Do you think a 35 would make a big difference?
We are in Missouri and she doesn’t want to go anywhere in Missouri so I’m supportive of her going a bit farther away even if we pay more.
