<p>All good and solid advice… he has had his scores sent to TAMU, just in case. He is automatic there, and would probably get some money. We can afford to send him to any of his options with whatever basic aid he is offered. He is not willing to budge much on his major, and if I weren’t so sure it is an excellent fit for him, I would make him branch out. As for the Academies, it’s just an ENTIRELY other ballgame… but he will not have to make any decisions if he is offered appointments until after he hears from all his other schools. We have diligently researched the timing on all of it… I just got a little worried that VT was not “safe” enough being OOS to be his only safety. We can always go regular admit at TAMU if he needs to, he’s still got plenty of time.</p>
