Some of these schools have too many applicants. They also get more money
from out of state and out-of-country students. My oldest son could not
get into UT and he had a 4.0. He was admitted to A&M, but he kept
applying to UT. lol He never wanted to give up. If I were to ask him
now, he would probably say it did not matter much.
