@doschicos : Wellesley is one we disagreed with but she wanted to apply to it so let her apply. I am thinking as the time progresses I will maybe remove 1 or 2 from the list and replace with a few others that I get from this thread that are likely to give merit(hopefully).
Alternatively may get her to add 1 or 2 with merit in there so we have a few choices. My thoughts were that we would hopefully get some merit at Case and USC (NM , hoping she gets to finalist). GT we visited and both of us liked it, also looking at their degree plan she would go in with 15-18 credits and we can afford the GT fees. Not sure how likely she is to get into those or any of the schools for that matter. However were planning on applying EA to GT and MIT and then can tweak the list based on what comes about from those decisions.
We can go full pay though it is something we are trying to avoid but if she gets into MIT for example do not mind paying full if that makes sense. Thanks for taking the time to respond
