<p>Agree with soccerguy. WM isn’t hurting with instate males. Something in your son’s application told admissions he’d make a fine addition to the class of 2014. If he puts forth effort, he can succeed at WM. I do not think U of R will offer an easier opportunity. To be honest, he need sufficient writing skills at JMU as well. Not certain GER at VT but would assume he would struggle as well. Writing aside, what school is most appealing to HIM?</p>
