Which subreddit does he use? The ones for the individual schools? Or is there a college admissions one?

+1. VERY STRANGE.

I think College Confidential is sort of dying. It's been quiet for months.

Yeah, I think I agree. I've been checking a number of the forum topics, not just UVA, and it does seem like posting are much less frequent.

+1 Posts went downhill after the redesign. I’ve been using reddit instead.

It's a kid space, so let them do their thing and observe.

And there are subs for most colleges. Agree part of why it works is that it's a parent-free zone.

Thanks for educating this ignorant father. Next you'll tell me kids don't use Facebook and Twitter.

I just spent 5 minutes reading and I'm stressed out! Practically every other thread on there is talking about the subReddit and/or it's users being "toxic."

And this place isn't?

At least they are trying to address it.

College confidential is for old people (like me). The kids are on Reddit.

Then don't read it?

Discord is the other site where kids discuss things, including college -- but you really don't want to go there if Reddit stresses you out.

The website Niche has been helpful for me as a parent.

Anyone dealing with a deferral? Other than mid year grades, I don’t know what else a student can do but wait.

Are you a legacy family? If so, a deferral is often a "soft decline". We got one of those from an Ivy where DD was a legacy.
