[quote=Anonymous]Fit, fit, fit. Keep repeating it. Never mention rankings. When you visit places, ask if your child would be happy living here for 4 years. Do the students seem like people they would like/vibe with? Find some safeties your child likes and really could be happy at so it’s not disappointing if they end up there. Repeat over and over that the top 20 are a lottery for everyone! It’s ok if they want to play, but it’s a reach for everyone who applies. Make sure they have a well rounded list. Apply to some rolling and EA so they have an acceptance in hand early. ED if you child knows what they want. You are setting the tone. If you freak out and act like it’s a crisis, so will they. Oh, and don’t talk about it all of the time. That is your anxiety, which feeds theirs (ask me how I know this).[/quote]
