[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would notify the EA school anonymously that the student already has been accepted ED to the other. school. Include high school counselor contact info so the EA school can verify it. They will reject the application, and the student will then attend the ED school.

This about protecting your school’s rep with the ED school so that future students don’t pay an awful price for this one student/family’s ugly behavior. It is not about getting this kid punished. If that happens, they brought it on themself. But it should not be the goal.

You sound like a person who calls ICE if someone has an accent. You do not have all the facts. Don't be that person. It's not your job to protect your schools reputation. If this is a private school, they will take action if needed. Just focus on your own kid. Top schools take students they want. Sometimes they take 1 and sometimes many more. I say this as a 'compliant' private school mom. [/quote]

You sound like someone who would have turned the other way as your Jewish neighbors were packed off to “relocation camps.”

Just focusing on your own life, your own interests has taken countries to terrible places.[/quote]

This may feel like a life or death issue for dcum parents, but it’s not. It’s a college admissions contract.

There has been no actual breaking of a contract. It’s a rumor amongst high schoolers and their parents.

If this actually comes true and the kid breaks his contract, maybe then feel entitled to a call with your high schools counselor to emphasize how unethical it is to the parents.
