[quote=Anonymous]OP- reporting back. DS called the admission office today and spoke with someone there to withdraw. They were very nice and thanked him for letting them know. As part of that discussion he asked if they would reconsider anyone else at his school. And the person took the time to explain that isn’t how it works, and that they overadmit to be sure they can secure the right incoming class based on yield. This is definitely a shared failure. The school didn’t have a simple option in the portal. And DS didn’t write down that he needed to figure out what to do. This school had rolling admissions and was a safety, so he wasn’t focused on them after he got in back in October. I think this has been a good lesson for all of us. This demonstrated to him how his actions, however inadvertent, could really impact others. It has made a bigger impression than all of my discussions with him.[/quote]
