<p>My D has her sights set on attending a top tier school for college and majoring in East Asian Studies. I think her chances are pretty good since she is a recruited athlete, has good test scores (ACT=35), and a 4.0 UWGPA (full IB diploma candidate). Looking at the department websites (Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia and Stanford, etc.) it is hard to distinguish between them. We won't go visit until February. Does anyone have any personal experience with one or more of these programs? I'd love to hear about it.</p>
