Although WPI with max merit is still over 50K a year if that is a factor. My DS22 was considering it last year. He was overall high stats.
Have you considered community college in a state with guaranteed admission to flag ship state school with AA degree? Virginia has great CC and admission to VA Tech or UVA requires like 3.5 CC GPA. Just a thought and a lower cost alternative to help him figure out his potential. With those scores he could likely be successful and highly selective STEM programs with maturity, guidance and executive function development I would think. I am in no way a professional just giving my opinion as an adult with ADD and the father of a daughter with crippling anxiety.

Is he a riding Junior or Senior ? Sounds a Junior so you are a year early.
He will have opportunities but for example if he gets a B in pre calc, itâs likely engineering wonât be suitable. Itâs got a, depending on the study, 40-60% drop rate. That says heâll have schools.
No shot at Purdue. An OSU or UMN would be a better reach.
Your likelies are safe.
UAH is safe.
Why no UK? Great engineerimg program.
Are you sure about Indiana residency. Is your son claimed on your hobbyâs taxes ?
Btw high test score and low gpa isnât uncommon. Testing doesnât necessarily measure academic ability or drive.
I wouldnât predict scores. Maybe your son will surprise you.
Either way heâll have plenty of solid options - especially with this list.
