[quote=Anonymous]We will never know why one particular applicant was not accepted, by one particular school. PPs have it right - there are thousands of qualified, talented applicants. Zeroing in on the "why" of one applicant's result? To me, seems pointless. Not personal. Feels like it it is, but it's not. Too many great applicants and a great many factors go into these decisions. They are not "right" or "wrong" decisions - they are what they are, it's not a matter of justice. To me, also not helpful to say "my child got into Yale but not UVA, how is this possible?". It just is. For many reasons. One result bears no relation to another result. These are common outcomes. No one is entitled to admission, anywhere, no matter what. Good luck OP, it sounds like your child will have a wonderful outcome and already has a terrific offer as well. [/quote]
