There will be plenty of schools for your S24! I have a D23 and S25 and both fall into the CC “average good student” category. D23 has a 3.6 UW GPA and applied to 11 schools. She has heard back from 6 so far. Admitted at 4 (one of which is a top choice for her) and deferred at 2.

She is a hard working student at a competitive public HS. We have worked hard as a family to prioritize mental health (she is an anxious kid who previously got very hung up on perfection) over perfect grades and taking the most demanding classes available. She has taken 2 APs, which are only available starting junior year, and several honors classes. It’s no easy task to balance school work, her sport, volunteer commitments, and still enjoy the high school experience.

It seems like every kid on CC is an academic superstar, but I assure you, there are many kids in the 3.0-3.8 range that end up with great options! Check out the 3.0-3.4 and 3.5-3.8 threads.
