[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one knows. It is a bit of a black box.

[b]People who do and don't get into lottery schools have their theories...but I would not put much stock in them.[/b][/quote]

This.  For everyone who thinks they know why their kid got in, there is another same story kid who didn't.  [b]I wish there was really a way of knowing.[/b][/quote]

There is. Your kid can FERPA their admissions file in the first year they matriculate. I believe the school the destroys the file after that first year.
In the file, they will see reader 1,2..n comments, and the committee vote. For my kid, there were a lot of codes used but you could roughly make out why (and youtube helps too)[/quote]

[b]Really?  This article states otherwise.

I think the PP is saying you can FERPA your file where you matriculate, which is exactly what that article says.  You cannot FERPA your file where you were denied.  FWIW my college keeps its admissions ecords forever.[/quote]
