[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish I had paid more careful attention to notification dates. Kid applied OOS to one state school EA as a target. Expected to hear in December (EA!) but for this university, OOS EA applicants are notified in January. This information was clearly communicated on the school's webpage, so it's definitely my fault (and the kid's fault). But we'd have skipped several 'likely' applications if (as I had erroneously thought) kid would have heard from the target EA in January![/quote] Tip: make a shared Google spreadsheet that you and your kid have access to. Include things like expected response date. Likewise, we have found shared Google docs to be very useful for essays. Parent can make suggestions that kid can choose to take or not take. On this note, I agree with the PPs about being careful not to remove the student's voice. This may be easier to do with a kid who writes too much than one who writes too little for the suggested word limit.[/quote]
