<p>Lastminutemom…I was very impressed with the disabilities office too. My son won’t be an automatic admit though. His SAT scores are excellent. IF he transferred back to a school that did not do class ranking, he could be an automatic admit, but he does not want to. That is fine. But, likely, he would need to go to community for a year before he could go to TAMU. AND, even with that, because he is a computer science major, there is not much he can take at community college that will apply to his degree. He already has AP credits that would cover the few core requirements that he would have. And he cannot get much for the maths or such that he would need. There still are courses he can take. But, if that route worked out, he would still need to do a full 4 years once he got to TAMU to get the actual computer science courses.</p>
<p>The reason he picked Austin College is that he wants to double major. He also wants to study abroad. He liked TAMU, but I suspect that was largely the fact that when he was born, my brother was in grad school there and promptly gave him an Aggie onsie to wear in the hospital. LOL…move on from there…he has shirts in every size up until a few years ago. My brother’s campus spirit lives on. THEN…his computer science teacher, an amazing teacher, is also an Aggie. Then when we visited the campus, everyone fell in love with TAMU. Even my daughter (who cannot go there due to her major, unless she drops music, which she won’t) fell in love.</p>
