[quote=Anonymous]We didn't write any thank you notes and my son was accepted to GDS, Sheridan and Sidwell and waitlisted at Maret and rejected at Beauvoir. This was 2 years ago. I do write thank you notes for every gift, vacation house freebie, dinner party and random unexpected nicety that comes my way. Like when my neighbor picked me up at the Sibley ER last year as a favor. I force my kids to write thank you notes for gifts although, I am sad to say, they hate it and complain all the way. I will urge DC to write TYs to a college recruiter who spends time interviewing them, really talking to them, etc. I make no apologies for not "thanking" the admissions staff for hosting a cattle call tour, playdate and Q and A session known as an "open house." Your DC didn't get my DC's spot. :) [/quote]
