The rest of on their way to universities in the UK, Germany, Egypt, Lebanon & India. Several are on their way to their national armies.</p>
<p>small all girls, private school in LA, no rankings but top students going to</p>
<p>Princeton (1)
Stanford (2)
UCLA (quite a few)
UC Berkeley (quite a few)
Boston College (a surprisingly large amount)
Smith
Sarah Lawrence
Harvey Mudd
Northwestern</p>
<p>and then a plethora of others (Cal Lutheran, Loyola Marymount, Loyola of Chicago, Hillsdale, UCSD, USD, USF, UCSB, University of Portland, ASU, U of A, UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz, and so forth)</p>
<p>Grad class of 340. Top 3 students in order are going to:
UVA
PSU Schreyers - turned down Penn & UVA because of money
Columbia
Next couple of students not necessarily in order because I don't know the order at this point:
Cornell (girl, engineering, with scholarship)
Johns Hopkins
Virginia Tech (engineering/scholarship)
With the majority of our students being middle class money is an issue for many. Loads of kids go to Penn State & U. Pitt. Virginia Tech is getting 3 of our top engineering kids this year - DS included.</p>
<p>The official list will be published next week, but at our competitive suburban hs (serving a community of about 20K), there are 380 graduating seniors, and I know of kids going to:</p>
<p>Harvard (1), Princeton (1), Brown (3), MIT (2), Penn (1), Duke (2), Williams (1), UChicago (1), Northwestern (1). Several kids are going to Cornell - at least 5 that I know of, and that number will go up when the official word is out. Ours is a feeder school for Cornell, and usually 8-10 kids enroll (one year it was 16!). Other schools that usually enroll multiple kids from our hs are Syracuse, Colgate, Hamilton, SUNY Binghamton and Buffalo, and Ithaca. Our school doesn't rank, but it does announce the kid with the highest GPA, and she's going to Vanderbilt (and she's my baby! :) )</p>
<p>Pretty good record for our counseling center, I'd say.</p>
<p>SusieQ - It is coed.</p>
<p>I'm from a rural HS in Vermont, class of 250. We have students going to:
Dartmouth (2, including Valedictorian), Stanford, UPenn, Cornell, Williams, Swarthmore (me!), Wesleyan, Northwestern, Vassar, Middlebury, UNC, Bates, UMich, CMU, Wellesley, Bard, and Smith, among others. Salutatorian going to Asbury, a small Christian college in KY.</p>
<p>About one-sixth are going in-state to UVM, a state college, or the state tech school. Another large bunch (one-fifth maybe?) are going straight into employment or taking a year off.</p>
<p>daughter attends single sex,suburban school with a graduating class of about 150. i would guess all grads attend college and probably 95% attend 4 year colleges. this year one to harvard, one to cornell, one to brown, one to columbia, and one to dartmouth. also sending one to williams, one to amherst, one to vassar, one to barnard, one to hamilton, two to wellesley, one to tufts, one to notre dame, one to holy cross, two to georgetown, two to hopkins, two to umich, and three to boston college. others going to other good schools as well.</p>

<p>Suburban TX school, 368 graduating class.</p>
<p>Our 8 valedictorians are going to:</p>
<p>UPenn
Oberlin
US Air Force Academy (also got into the Naval one)
Texas A & M

University of North Texas</p>

Amherst</p>
<p>One of our sals (Amherst one) also got waitlisted at Yale. I think it's been awhile since anyone got into HYP, or any Ivy, though we did have someone go to UPenn last year as well. Usually, our vals and sals just go to UT-Austin and Texas A & M.</p>
<p>One of the vals from the other high school in town (graduating class of 410) is going to WashU.</p>
<p>Suburban rural HS ~ 240 grads.</p>
<p>Seven vals: Ohio U, Ohio Northern, Conn College, OSU
One sal: RIT</p>
<p>ohio_mom: </p>
<p>Was the Val going to OU an HTC person? I was so excited when my son got the letter about HTC that I was literally jumping up and down and pounding him on his back.</p>
<p>I don' know, Dig. I keep running into Scripps school of Journalism grads (including the one we hired as our PR guy/marketing manager), though, and they are all (at least my small sample) fabulous people and professionals. A co-worker's daughter is going to Scripps this fall, and is thrilled about it. In Ohio, most hs's send their top kids to the top Ohio publics, and from what I have seen, it seems to me that the more thoughtful ones go to OU.</p>
