Hi everyone,
So grateful for all the wonderful feedback. I’ve read and reread each post and wanted to provide some clarification (as much as I can get out of S24).
Why such a variety of schools?
Being flexible, he prioritized schools with good academics and the chance of receiving good merit scholarships.
Where does he want to live?
Flexible. Would also be open to abroad.
Richmond - Based on your suggestions, we’re going to visit this week. Note: stand corrected regarding price posted: S24 received a “need based grant” that brought the price down. Sorry for the confusion.
Not to throw a wrench in things, but the following are schools he’s still waiting to hear back from. Most are reaches. Are there any that if S24 was admitted to that we should put to the top of the list?
Johns Hopkins
Northwestern
WashU
William & Mary
Georgetown - deferred
UVA - waitlisted
Thanks!
