[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your app list must be balanced. If you have 7 reach schools, balance with 5 mid range and 5 safeties. It's a ton of work, but the student has to protect themselves from being shut out. The early action path can work,but make sure the notification date gives the student time to prepare alternate apps, if needed. Ex: notification date of Dec 15? Some guidance offices need a lead time of 2 weeks BEFORE Christmas break to send out transcripts, recommendations etc.[/quote] We went ahead and had the guidance office send transcripts, and sent SATs to all schools DC planned to apply to. Once DC got an ED defer and EA acceptance (Dec 19) he revised the list and dropped a few safeties. So we spent a few $ but no rushing. [/quote]
