not sure where to put this...
based on everything I've been reading about the State of CT and the state of Uconn's finances, I thought being an out of state application would be a benefit.
My son has 1300 on the SAT's, has a 3.6 GPA with several AP and Calc BC classes. Not sure of class ranking, assume he's in top 25-30%. Got into UMASS Engineering. Just found out he didn't even get a sniff at Uconn.
as much as I would like him to attend Uconn, I just assumed he'd get in with minimal financial assistance and he'd end up somewhere else that gave him more. he's been really into the co-op program at RIT and I think that's his first choice. i know uconn is competitive, but geez. really surprised he didn't even get into the Liberal Arts program (he applied to the engineering school).
