Op,
I feel your pain. I have an ADHD kiddo as well. On the UC apps, kid self reports their std test scores, but also must contact either college board or act to have the official scores sent to one if the UCs and then they distribute it to the other 5.
If ur kid qualified for the top 9%, then maybe can submit scores and get a late acceptance to UC Merced? Other options would be
- to take a gap year and reapply next year,
- Go to community college,
- Some private unis that don’t fill will take late apps,
- Maybe some CSUs that have difficulty filling will take a late app
Unfortunately the UCs don’t send out email notices for missing documents. They force the applicants to log into their portals to read any messages. Many kids never log onto their portals, I know that mine didn’t, and so they would never see the message for missing items to their app.
So sorry and hugs to you!!
