@MitchIsTheMan97 are you out of state for OSU?
Yes. I received the National Buckeye Scholarship and hopefully will receive the Morill Prominence Scholarship
Ah. OSU is very generous to OOS. Instate? Not so much. Congrats.
Thanks! And hey it could be worse. You could have UIUC as your state flagship; they give little to no aid to instate and costs $15k+ in tuition!
My youngest son last year:
91/100 UW (public schoolâŠjust out of top 10%, school doesnât rank but does bar graph on school profile) through junior yearâŠslightly higher in senior year (so i guess around a 3.6-3.7?..all Bs & B+ in math thru AP calculus) 6 APs + honors classes
2260 SATâŠcr800, m690, w770; sat2: world history800, us history760, lit770, NM commended
Accepted, in order:
Tulane w $30,000/yr merit

Urochester (early notification for merit but withdrew before getting merit letterâŠjust got acceptance letter)

Ucla (got accepted even though he withdrew his app, lolâŠhe was shocked when he got the email)
Deferred ED & later withdrew from Brown
Withdrew his apps from Emory, jhu, Penn, nyu
Rejected: none
He applied to so many schools bc he was afraid his lopsided gpa & sat scores would tank him. I think he was successful bc he wrote a very strong application and his ECs, scores, & national/regional awards supported his intended majors in English & history.
Since decisions are coming out right about now, I figured Iâd bump this.
