[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate these offers.  my kid got several last year. the kids are trying to take APs, find a   roommate, finish high school (which at our school included a 20 page paper and a full week of cumulative exams--so a lot of work until the very end) and then it's like "you have 48 hours to decide on a  new school you may or may not have ever visited."  And before you say "why did your kid apply to schools they didn't visit?"  Well, it wasn't in the budget to fly to a dozen different cities, including many with 5% chance of admission.  [/quote]

Yes, we went to many, many admitted students events last month because she was waitlisted and rejected from her two top choices (this wasn't one of those).  She ultimately didn't fall in love with any of the schools but picked the one she thought she liked the best.  It would have been nice to have been able to attend this school's admitted student program.

Anyway, she replied affirmatively to the email from the admissions director and I guess we will see what happens.[/quote]
