Dear friends,

1) I'm sorry you haven't seen me posting. I don't trust this broken brain and limit its output beyond the walls of home to needs of family.

2) About 9 months ago, through various Internet venues, I sought assistance in maximizing the opportunities for my son.

I received a considerable number of replies to my email address. I was thrilled to read messages from caring people from almost the world around.

3) Mike got all teary about his family. We got all teary about him.

Mum, Dad and Alex thought Mike's desire to do the "Numb3rs" had dissolved, he would go through High School and then attend the local university.

4) This week, we found out we were wrong.

Mike had followed my advice - study USA SAT tests, undertake the sample tests where universities make them available.

Mike came to us because he'd achieved the SAT level which would permit a 100% bursary for university attendance at John Hopkins University, Baltimore.

REQUEST:

~~Those who know someone at John Hopkins contact them on our behalf and initiate a conversation.

~~ Anyone who knows the USA university system, please advise us on how to proceed.

Ian Clark

Michael has won selection several times. Any requirement for payment is beyond out means. Having a "Charlie" and no money must surely be solvable somewhere. Please help

...your concern as I have no idea what financial assistance is available for people from countries other than the USA. I might give you a "heads-up" on one aspect though...if you need to communicate with the University, their correct name is Johns Hopkins University.

Cheers and the best to you and yours.
