Sorry I disappeared, I forgot my login info :)) It’s possible to forget your own name with those applications…
My son retook the test with much better results and we submitted the applications… Waiting for March 10th now
thank you for all your replies!
Big Fish Small Pond. I would lean toward a school that is sports heavy. He would be welcomed by the arts department and admissions as the feather in their cap. Arts is no less a hook than sports. It would be an even bigger hook at a sports school.
that’s a good point…thanks! if he is not accepted this year, we’ll try to apply to more schools next year.
Commonwealth or Thayer both have strong arts programs. I was disappointed with Rivers: they seem to be playing up sports. Every third image in their video is of sports.
Marketing - schools try to have a balanced campus. If one area is weaker than others, throw in more pictures and stories to attract that demographic.
Rivers already has strong teams. They are known for that.
