Flea - actually your girls stand a great chance of being accepted to university or even awarded scholarships if they are interested in STEM studies and have decent to good grades and scores (north of 3.0 GPA, 23 ACT). Even if they don't, they can go the CC route for early credits and transfer to Uni at a later time. Gender and race ratios play a huge role in acceptance these days. There is also always Nursing, which is the female equivalent to a standard Male trade and its exploding in need.

Honestly, its our boys that are falling behind. Sad...
