<p>Daffinito, my daughter was offered the Oldham Scholarship at Richmond. She has similar stats to sharonohio’s daughter. She is not a minority, was 2220 on SAT, valedictorian, 4.0, many EC’s, many APs, very strong writer, and a few very unusual accomplishments for high school student. She felt the competition was very tough. </p>
<p>I am sorry for your daughter. She sounds like a fantastic student. My D was accepted to some schools, wait-listed at others, and Richmond gave her the best offer. I think you just have to choose what you think is the best option.</p>
