[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would just caution you from putting too much weight on the power of the regional admissions rep to swing the decision. We were in your position last year and a regional rep at an Ivy was talking to our CC about our kid for months and really going to bat for our child. However, a regional rep only has so much influence. They do not make the admissions decision--that is done by committee and can be vetoed by another member, especially if the other member is senior, etc. There are office politics in admission committees just like there are everywhere. We held on to a lot of false hope in this scenario because of how much communication our school was receiving from the university and it ended up not working out in the end.
