今年申请很多好学校都要SAT、ACT了，至少是option，基本上只有UC不需要了。 好像27年基本上除了UC都要提供了。

这个经历实在太杂乱了，完全没法显示特点在哪里。招生官哪儿有功夫仔细看啊？立马和其它一大堆杂七杂八的申请人混成一堆了。

我觉得是不是为了保yield,j觉得这娃太over-qualify了，resume太强了，肯定申请了其他牛校，拿这几个学校保底的，所以暂时不录，如果到了4，5月你还没有撤销申请，或者再去个email说很感兴趣，人家就会录取了

怎么定义的？

AI Overview In the United States, upper class income is generally considered to be more than double the median household income. In 2024, this would mean an income of over $153,000. However, there is no exact definition of upper class income, and it can vary depending on location and household size. 
Explanation The median household income in the United States in 2022 was $74,580.  The top 10% of American households earned about $323,000 before taxes in 2022.  The upper class is often associated with wealth and privilege.  The upper class usually has greater financial flexibility than other classes.  The cost of living and household size can affect income ranges. For example, a household in a high-cost area or with more people may need a higher income to be considered upper class.

不会吧，这么优秀还被UM NCSU defer。我以为没有AA DEI以后亚裔的申请结果会更好了。

你得看什么专业啊，他申请的敏感专业

Upper class 是年级排名比较前的意思吧？

摆在Demographics底下的，应该是指家产吧

不是美国人吗？美国人申请都有敏感专业的说法了？我还以为只有苦哈哈的F1要考虑敏感专业呢

录取有运气。有的华裔孩子一般也去了好学校。这孩子政治不敏感，华裔这时候申请敏感专业要多难有多难。

应该会有更好的offer。 可能是 tufts syndrome 。 有更好offer会来update吧! 祝福祝福!

去查了一下：Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, also known as “The Harvard of the Skies,” is the #1 university in the world for aviation and aerospace.

这个录取看起来好魔幻！

这几所学校都是专业排名前10吗？ 那这个结果挺正常的。

如果是加州的小中男，也没啥好震惊的

偏重点不一样，这个更像一个技校，偏重于  aviation maintenance, air traffic management, aeronautical science, aerospace and occupational safety, flight operations, and airport management 这些。aerospace e. 也较强，但还是逊于 MIT ， CalTech, GIT 等
另外 aerospace e. 现在不太好找工作啊，文学城那有个老中家长前几天还天天帮娃刷工作，他家娃好像是某强校 aerospace e. 还没找到实习

U密对外州是有yield protection 的，那么贵的学费，加州娃要是拿到UCB UCLA 很少会选U密的吧。 我们学校去年有大藤娃被U密defer 的

震惊!
