[quote=Anonymous][quote]+1 It's obvious that poster was making up a story because s/he is still fuming. Ridiculous. [/quote] I'm the poster you're referring to and calling a liar. I think VT is an excellent school, that's popular with a lot of students so demand exceeds availability. I'm not the least bit upset about that. The decisions my DC shared from the party are real. My post was simply questioning possible impact to yield as the current admissions process unfolds. These kids are stressed out and ready to pick a school, get the sweatshirt and start their senior slide. That of course happens every year. But, after seeing a lot of deferrals and straight up rejections from Clemson, Auburn, TN, SC and TCU - schools like VT that are popular and where kids think they should have a decent admissions chance - they're even more anxious. So VT's unexpected release of a few decisions and now possible silence until mid February, coupled with the lack of ED & the delayed FAFSA, may change some calculations. [/quote]
