[quote=Anonymous]I've seen posters here describe well-ranked schools with 25% acceptance rates as "safeties," so there's lots of misplaced confidence by parents — which unfortunately hurts the kids applying. That's why so many colleges use demonstrated interest as a factor. They don't want to be a lazy fallback for students who really have no intererest in going there. But it doesn't have to be hard — if you can't visit in person, at least do a virtual tour or sit in on a Zoom presentation and make sure it's a college you actually would be happy to attend.[/quote]
