[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tons of kids in my daughters school have still not committed.

Plus some sent a deposit in on a school not committed to as wait listed the schools they want to attend.

[b]My neighbors daughter accepted 17 schools and has not withdrawn one offer. Still on fence. 14 gave her Merit money. 
[/b]
My daughter is not attending the four highest ranked schools she got into.

Until they mail tuition check the deposit is meaningless.

That is a f***load of money.  She really can't decide among 17?  She will have troubles next year choosing a lunch entree.[/quote]

i find it so weird that students can't decide.  When I applied, I had a definite order of preference to the schools I applied to, so when I got my acceptances/rejections, it was just obvious which one I was going to.

My own kid only applied to 3 schools--one "safety", one school that he was reasonably sure he could get into but wasn't a sure thing, and a reach school.  He got accepted at the safety and reasonably sure, but rejected at the reach.   In the end, he decided he actually preferred the safety over the "reasonably sure" so he's going there.[/quote]
