[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My current senior DC has 7 deferrals. I keep telling him they will likely all be WL or rejections. Every single deferral my older 2 kids had were WL or rejection in RD. Not ONE turned into an acceptance. YMMV[/quote]
what do you do when this happens?

What are the alternative paths?

I'm getting nervous.

My kid is a very high stats (good e.c. not spectacular), so maybe my nervousness is unfounded, but I just feel like it's all a lottery these days.

DC did EA to flagships like Michigan, Chicago, etc.  and RD to few elite ones like Stanford. I'm not holding my breath for the elite ones, but I am not even sure about the top publics now.

Am I being ridiculous? First kid to go to college.  I went to a no-name state u.[/quote]

Ummm...Michigan and Chicago, etc. are Elite schools as well.  If your list only includes Standfor, Michigan, Chicago and the likes, that might be an issue.  There are no targets/true safeties in those lists...and that will set you up for disappointment[/quote]
