Mostly Honors and AP classes throughout his HS
Currently enrolled in:

Initially applied for architecture, got denied on 1-22-20 and emailed admission office to change to landscape architecture under the portals suggestion. I was not asked for any other information and saw the update while checking the application portal.
Best of luck to any other hopeful architecture students, I was about to just let it go but decided last minute to change my major.
