To Which Schools Did Your School Valedictorian Get Accepted?

<p>In '06, never knew who was the Val–believe there were several and they attended the usual suspects: Harvard, Stanford, MIT, CalTech, Pamona. In 2008, similar.</p>

<p>2011: Val-BC, Sal-University of South Carolina
2012: Val-Holy Cross, Sal-WPI
2013: Val-BC, Sal-Northeastern
2014 (both accepted ED): Val(me)-Brown, Sal-Williams</p>

<p>2010: Princeton, Harvard (16 Ivy League students)
2011: Yale, Brown (9 Ivy League students)
2012: UT Austin (full ride), Columbia (4 Ivy League students)
2013: Yale, UVa (Jefferson Scholar) (5 Ivy League students)
2014: Yale x2 (already 8 Ivy league students)</p>

<p>3 years ago Columbia and Cornell, 2 years ago Stanford and Cornell, last year Stanford and Harvard, this year MIT</p>

<p>2005 (I think?)- Val- Yale
2007: Val- Harvard
2009: Val- UVA (Jefferson Scholarship, also got into Harvard, Georgetown, and others), Sal- Princeton (also got into Upenn Wharton)
2010: Val- Princeton (Also accepted into Amherst College, Colgate, rejected by Harvard).
2011: Val- Franklin and Marshall (performed poorly on his SATS- around 1900, rejected by all Ivy’s. He was the first valedictorian who did not get into an Ivy league from my school).
However, #3 got full ride into UPenn Wharton School.
2012- Val- UVa (also performed poorly on SATs and was not liked by our school). Sal- Georgetown (rejected by all Ivys). #4 got into Brown ED.
2013- Had two valedictorians: Val#1- A US military Academy (turned down Yale and Duke).
Val #2- Georgia Tech (Turned down Notre Dame). Sal- Rice ED. </p>

<h1>4 (me)- Amherst College (rejected by all Ivys).</h1>

<p>These are the stats for the past years at my school, which is pretty surprising considering I attend an international school. Also, it is interesting that only valedictorians and salutatorians have ever been admitted to Ivy Leagues. I am almost sure its no coincidence- Ive Leagues LOVE valedictorians.</p>

<p>2010: Harvard
2011: Yale
2012: Harvard
2013: Vassar (Yale waitlist)
2014: (not applying to any Ivy’s but Brown; Northeastern on an almost full ride with a phone call from the dean of the program he’s doing there)</p>

<p>Class of 2014- Val- Conn College, Sal- Hamilton (but transferring to Umass) I only can recall 2 students that went to a highly ranked school, Williams, which is in the same county. Never recall any Ivy leaguers. This years Val got rejected from Stanford (truly their loss, I never met a kid like him. The full package, National Merit Finalist, 2350 Sat score, gifted actor, musician and athlete…and the girls think he is cute too!)</p>

<p>My D’s class of 2013 Val was deciding among Northwestern, Georgetown, and UPenn…is attending UPenn</p>

<p>My school typically sends 2-3 kids to top schools every year.</p>

<p>[2015: probably me, but I probably won’t be able to live up to these standards…]
2014: He doesn’t know yet, but I’m betting on Princeton or Stanford.
2013: Yale, Columbia, UPenn, Duke, UCB Regents, a bunch of other top schools (salutatorian: Notre Dame)
2012: MIT (sal: UVA)
2011: Cornell
2010: Princeton (sal: Maryland, I think)</p>

<p>Top 5: #1 Texas Business Honors, #2 Texas A&M Honors, #3 Texas A&M didn’t get in Honors, #4 don’t know, #5 Harvard.</p>

<p>Past 3 Years:</p>

<p>Val: UT Austin
Sal: Rice ED</p>

<p>Val: UC-Berkeley
Sal: UT Austin</p>

<p>This Year:
Val: Deferred MIT (still in application process; applied to Stanford RD & some else)
Sal: Deferred MIT (still in application process; applied to Stanford RD & some else)</p>

<p>Don’t want this to get too far down, if for no other reason than I think it’s interesting. Maybe there’ll be more responses as decisions start coming back…</p>

<p>My school:</p>

<p>2011 - Yale
2012 - Harvard
2013 - Stanford
2014 - idk, it’s me and I’m still waiting, though already accepted to MIT</p>

<p>2009: Worcester State University
2010: Brandeis
2011: University of Rhode Island
2012: UMASS Amherst
2013: Holy Cross
2014: Brigham Young </p>

<p>Most of our valedictorians are very boring people with few extracurricular commitments, which makes them boring candidates for admission. Starting in 2013, my school has been slamming out competitive students and the acceptances of my year are trumping previous years (Middlebury, Tufts, Cornell, BC, MIT)</p>

<p>2013:</p>

<h1>1: CalTech</h1>

<h1>2: Boston U</h1>

<h1>3: Harvard, Harvey Mudd</h1>

<h1>4: Harvard, Stanford</h1>

<p>If you can’t tell, rankings in the top 1% don’t matter much at my school :smiley: </p>

<p>Last year’s val went to the U.S. Naval Academy; the year before, Binghamton; the year before that, Cornell. I don’t know where they were accepted, though. Our is school is a rural district with about 140 kids per year, in upstate NY.</p>

<p>2014- val- accepted to Amherst College, Princeton and Yale. </p>

<p>2014
Accepted: Berkeley, UCLA
Waitlist: Harvard
Rejected: Stanford and a bunch of Ivies</p>

<p>He was too snobby to apply to Cornell or another “lower”-Ivy.
If he “only” goes to a UC, then that’ll take a lot of pressure off of me (the probable 2015 val) to go to HYPSMC. Although if H takes him off the waitlist, I’ll be really mad b/c I hate him (the snobbiness factor again).</p>

<p>Valedictorian CO2010 - Harvard
Valedictorian CO2011 - Harvard
Valedictorian CO2012 - Harvard
Valedictorian CO2013 - UMass Amherst</p>

<p>CO2010- Wake Forest
CO2011- Williams
CO2012-Williams
CO2013- Haverford</p>
