New Admits, Ask Me Your Questions!

<p>Makes perfect sense. I’d heard of some students hoping to use the internal transfer strategy as a backdoor way of getting into SCA and wondered if that was risky. </p>

<p>D is enrolling as a CS frosh, so we don’t have that hurdle, but has strong interest in some of the other technical and business aspects of the producing and browsing through the catalog was reaffirming. Kind of makes me wish I was starting over - the options students have now are so amazing. This gives us something to discuss during the campus visit and I suspect she’ll spend time with the department when she’s at orientation mapping out her courses this summer. I’m trying not to be a “helicopter” mom and am letting her feel her way through this. She’s still in shock about the acceptance, but mourning because she’s meeting new admits still struggling with the latest FA news. So thanks for letting me ask questions on this forum. And for all the great and consistent advice you’ve been giving on various threads - especially that she shouldn’t wait for the FA letter or May 1 to pay the dorm deposit. That was a gem of a tip. So appreciate it and hope to contribute in future years once I get my feet wet as a newly minted Trojan parent.</p>
