<p>Myau,
Son is currently at USC, which he accepted because of the full tuition scholarship they offered, but he is applying to transfer to U of C this next year. He will be studying Geophysics and Music[ minor].<br>
Keep in mind that Yale, Princeton, Harvard and all of the Ivy's are going to be a reach for any student, no matter how qualified [ unless they are a double legacy, recruited athete, developement student, national award winner- you get the idea] because of the sheer numbers of highly qualified students applying. H,P,Y accept less than 10% of those applying. Have her apply to Ivy's if she wants to, but have some safeties as well. You should read the CC thread by Andi titled "picking up the pieces.." from 2 years ago, about her extremely talented musical son who was rejected or waitlisted at every college [all IVY's and reaches] he applied to.</p>
