[quote=Anonymous]One of my kids applied ED for the advantage, got deferred, then got in RD but also got in to some other schools, and the admitted student events resulted in their deciding to go to one of the RD colleges. I think the enthusiasm for getting into the hardest admit wears off a little when you start thinking about spending four years at a place whose main appeals are prestige and a technical match for the subjects your interested in. That said, I think most students have a honeymoon period followed by a crash. Has your daughter got a roommate yet, OP? I think getting to know the people you'll be around can make the prospect of college more appealing, sort of like kids making plans to attend their safety, hearing a yes from the school that waitlisted them, and deciding to stay with the safety. Good luck to you both.[/quote]
