My son was admitted after deferral as a Founders Scholar. TCU was originally his first choice. He also has a 3 year scholarship from ROTC to cover his tuition. I think the delay from TCU has knocked TCU from that top spot. He has had several months to visit other schools look into meal plans and dorms and roommates. He was accepted before Christmas to Baylor, Alabama, Ole Miss, Montana State, West Virginia and Embry Riddle. Those schools have pursued him and a few have offered enough merit to pick up that 4th year that ROTC doesn’t cover. He went to admitted students day at Ole Miss and they really impressed him. He will take some time still to decide but TCU went from firmly his first choice to at best 2nd place right now. I’m not sure why TCU defers so many students. But I am sure it costs them some great Freshman.
