[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many comments expecting the college counselor to call admissions officers and fix this problem. But private schools only exercise that power for the kids/ families they like and prioritize (big donors, star athletes, families with younger kids still at the school, children of faculty, etc.). If you're not one of the chosen ones, the school won't help you-- and might actively throw you under the bus to help other kids get in (which I'd be willing to bet happened to OP's kid). -someone who went to private school, got thrown under the bus by college counseling, and transferred way up after a year[/quote] Sooooooo they won’t help the nice kid who did well in school, caused no trouble, etc.? Wonderful. [/quote]
