[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not posting this here. Go to r/collegeresults [/quote] OP again: I don’t care about stats or all acceptances. I wanted to know HOW kids decided where to go from the 2-5 schools they were admitted to, My DD is getting stuck on selectivity rather than fit so I was curious how other kids were deciding. This isn’t about results. It’s about making a final choice. [/quote] My DC was in similar spot next year - ended up visiting the final three and ultimately chose fit (lowest ranked school but still top 100). Absolutely thriving as a freshman academically, socially and emotionally. Plenty of folks on here will say fit is BS and status matters but trust your child and their process. My child was really struggling in April until I asked them if deep down they knew where they should go. That made the difference. Also remember this isn’t an irrevocable decision- if they go one place and are really miserable transferring is always an option. I know people don’t really like to talk about this but it happens all the time. Good luck![/quote]
