[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she actually ready for college if it was like pulling teeth to get her to apply and now she isn’t interested in any of her choices?[/quote]

+1. It’s very strange that OP thinks she should have pushed more and made more decisions for her daughter. This is their process, not ours.[/quote]

I don't think that's what she's saying.  She regrets not having provided stronger guidance at a more opportune time.[/quote]

Right. At several points she had the opportunity to submit more applications, said I'll do it later, then [b]she said she didn't want to bother.[/b] I should have insisted more, but I didn't want to cause more conflict and stress.[/quote]

This is on HER. My daughter is the same. She applied to 3 schools. If she doesn't get in to the one she's actually interested in, it's on her because she didn't put more effort into her application and she didn't seriously search for a backup that she'd be enthused, if not somewhat excited, about.[/quote]
