[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They can say "you have over 10 classmates considering this school for ED, you may want to go with a different option" But that doesn't mean that kid won't still apply ED to that school, because everyone thinks they may have a shot.[/quote] At elite schools like sidwell, how do they not have relationships with elite admissions officers to get pre-reads? [/quote] College admissions offices are so under-staffed, can’t even finish reading submitted applications these days. [/quote] It's usually the regional reps that you reach out to, not the AD. It's their job, so no, they aren't too busy to take those calls. Even students can call them. When you go on a tour, you are given the business card of your regional rep.[/quote] I am not sure anyone hands out business cards to kids on big tours anymore. I think a pre read is a thing of the past. [/quote] ?? We got cards on every tour this Fall. My DC's counselor did pre-reads for 5 schools to help DC focus the ED choice, getting feed back that did help form the plan.[/quote]
