[quote=Anonymous]If your HS has such a “pipeline,” it must be a private school.* And assuming so, can’t your counselor give a good indication of your child’s odds at their true dream college vs the one where the college has such a strong relationship? * I know someone will say some lublics have pipelines to top colleges, too. Not true, at least not in the same way. A private school’s pipeline is in large part driven by the private school counselors’ cultivated relationships with the college admissions persons. They can and do actually call and get feedback on their candidates. A public school’s “pipeline” simply means that the college has found students from the HS to be successful there so they are confident that the qualified students can flourish there, thereby perhaps leading to higher number of acceptances.
