[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP -- before you said it, I wondered if your DD was afraid of rejection or maybe even afraid of getting into a school like Cornell and feeling like she won't belong. I would strongly encourage her to apply to one reach. Have you visited Cornell? If not, I would do that and then see what she says. [/quote] Encourage? Who is paying for the applications? If I am paying for the applications as the parent, then I get some say in what applications go in. If my kid were doing this, I would say "I'm paying for all this. Pick one reach you think you could live with. You apply. We'll visit and you can decide what you think." If the school says "No" or the kid decides "No," I'll abide. But I would definitely be pushing the issue with my kid. [/quote]
