School exposed identifiable student stats on SCOIR

DC's is small private where the college counselors dissuaded students from talking with one another about where they're applying - even to the point of asking students to not wear college sweatshirts where they've been accepted -and-not allowing the student to create an Insta page of acceptances until May when everyone knows where they're going (so as not to hurt students feelings/stress them out who were applying RD or didn't apply/get in ED or EA). This is probably why I was so taken aback when the identifiable stats were so blatant.

I'm glad so many of you have kids who attend more supportive schools - ours is oddly not very rah-rah for one another and even the parents are cagey and secretive.

Update: the college counselors removed the 2026 identifier and now you can only search SCOIR through 2025.



That is the right move.
