<p>My daughter just started at UD. We cannot cannot say enough good things about it so far. As far as your son goes he would certainly be accepted, maybe even into honors which is a really nice program. He would likely get some merit, maybe in the $4-8k range per year, although I am really speculating and basing it on my daughter and one other student both who got more than that, but have higher stats. I would not have much hope for UVA or UNC. He is not even close for an OOS student. Cornell is iffy. Hope this helps for perspective. My advice is apply to lots of schools so that the are lots of options when the time comes. Lots of things happen in that senior year that cause them to change their minds. What sounds like a plan in October can be a long forgotten mEmory in April.</p>
