[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At this point in admissions they are asking for reasons to keep you in the pool of 3x the qualified applicant pool to keep you in the mix. They are also looking for reasons to keep you out because that’s where they can reassign the blame and put it on the student so that parents don’t come back at them and go ballistic. You give them any reason to cut you loose, and they will. Source: used to be an alumni interviewer, I got really depressed about 25 years ago when a kid at the school I interviewed at committed suicide by hanging himself from a prep school stairwell when his acceptance was rescinded[/quote] If this is the story about the kid who went out drinking to celebrate the acceptance and then self-reported the violation, it is profoundly sad, but it would be heartbreaking in any case.
