[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. It's not a "rumor"- the emails from these colleges explicitly state that results will be out at 3pm.  How much harder would it be for them to release them at 7pm EST or later when the vast majority of kids are out of school?

And I'm not "freaking out"- I'm just noting that it's remarkably lacking in empathy.[/quote]

Parents and students need to learn to deal with life.  Wait until you are home to open the email. Nothing is going to change in the 30 mins that takes.  And seriously, if your 17/18 is going to be so "extremely upset" that they cannot safely drive home from school, then perhaps dont' let them drive to school that day.   They are not getting a death sentence or a cancer diagnosis---they are simply finding out if they got accepted at one school---most of the ED schools are low acceptance schools, so as a parent you should already have prepared your kid for the reality that they might not get in.  Yes they can be upset, but not "so upset I cannot safely drive" .  It's your job to prep them for how to handle things in life.  Because this is nothing compared to real life
