[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe that you actually have a rising senior at a big 3. There are way too many things on your to do list that should have been crossed off by now. Your kid's peers will be completing college apps starting in late August.[/quote]

NP.  I have a rising senior at a big 3 who is [b]still figuring out[/b] where to apply and we plan to visit additional colleges this summer/fall.  Some apps may be completed in August, but not all (hope DC will have the common app essay done, but no guarantees).  OP's post seems believable to me.[/quote]

"Still figuring out" and "plan to visit additional colleges" are the operative terms here. The OP seems to be saying that they don't have a list and haven't met with the college counselor. That seems unrealistic for a big 3 student - different story entirely for public school student. [/quote]

I guess not "Big 3," but Potomac parent here with rising senior. Though kid has met with college counselor, parents have not and probably won't, considering requested emails to set up said meeting have been completely ignored. Clicked through to kid's Naviance and was horrified at the schools the counselor put in. Honestly, just can't face this process. Didn't really for older kids until late summer and all worked out fine. Not everybody is as intense and insane as DCUM would lead you to believe. In any event, OP, you now full well that your kid is a top applicant. Why do you need to come here with this question?[/quote]
