Daughter was waitlisted with 35 ACT, 4.99 W GPA, excellent EC’s and leadership positions, 800 volunteer hours and National Merit Commended. She was also waitlisted at Case Western. She has been accepted to three safeties (U of SC Honor’s College, VT and NC State) and UVA (OOS) and MIT. We are currently waiting to hear from Duke, Yale and Princeton. Current first choice is MIT and absent acceptance from one of the three remaining schools, that is where she will be attending. We were honestly expecting the waitlist so she was not that upset. It looks like there are some great kids with awesome opportunities and difficult choices ahead of them.
