[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are applying to 9th grade in a school NOT in the DC area. Yesterday (Mar 2) we got an email from a student ambassador saying hello, if your child has any questions, I'm happy to answer them. FYI, my background is XYZ (club activities, sports etc that sounded very similar to what DC wrote as interests). I am trying to not read too much into it. But, still spent a considerable amount of time wondering whether the school would have their student ambassadors send such an email on Mar 2 if they were going to reject us 3 days later. If this was in fact a blanket email sent to many applicants (inlcuidng those that will be rejected/WLed) that is almost cruel because it is making us hopeful...[/quote] Curious how it worked out? Anyone receive similar emails from student ambassadors a couple weeks before decisions are out? [/quote] We received a very similar email just the other day and we are about 2-3 weeks from decisions being announced. It's a very competitive school outside of DC so we thought all along that it would be a long shot being accepted. The student ambassador wrote directly to our child introducing himself. We noticed his profile is very similar to our child's. The ambassador ended the email saying that he is happy to answer any questions at any time. We can't help but think it might be positive sign. And it seems like they have already reviewed our child's file.... But then we don't want to set ourselves up for disappointment.... :/[/quote]
