[quote=Anonymous]I have spoken directly with college admissions reps, and they've said that interest counts. You don't have to visit the school (it's financially and logistically impossible sometimes), but your kid does need to email the rep for her area with questions, go to the local visit (there are lots of these), keep in touch with the school, have an alumni interview. Interest really does factor in. They've told me they reject high caliber candidates they are certain won't go if they get in because they want to admit kids who are a good fit for their school. They want to admit kids who are likely to go to the school, and not waste an admission on a kid who's using the school for a safety but has no intention or likelihood of attending that school.
