General Comments:</p>

<p>Congratulations **vryproudmom<a href=“and%20son”>/b</a>! My son graduated from Clemson last May and he loved it. He felt he got a great education, got lots of opportunities, and was well prepared for grad school. If your son hasn’t already done so, make sure he applies to the Calhoun Honors College. It really made a huge difference in my son’s experience at Clemson.</p>

<p>Thanks Proud Mary. I do not think son will be attending as he received a better scholarship elsewhere.
I started this thread hoping everyone who was accepted so far would post their stats and Clemson scholarship offers to help those who are still waiting.</p>

<p>@proudmom, Can you share where your son might be going instead? Just curious. I’m sure he’ll do well wherever he goes.</p>

<p>My son also received the schol offer – he has good grades (school doesn’t rank, he’s roughly in the top 5-6%) and top test scores (equiv. to ACT 36).</p>

<p>He’s considering Clemson seriously, and a Calhoun acceptance would be a big plus.</p>

<p>Right now one of son’s top choices is University of Pittsburgh. They offered him full tuition and an invite to compete for Chancellors. </p>

<p>Your son’s scores are amazing. Good luck to you both.</p>
