[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had this situation. My suggestion is to really work the waitlists and consider hiring a college counselor to coach working the waitlist. He may get a spring admit.[/quote] How could a college counselor help work the waitlist? If there is a counselor that has connections at a particular school, then maybe I could see how someone might be able to put a thumb on the scale. Otherwise, I'm not sure how that would work.[/quote] The guidance counselor at our private has lots of connections to admissions offices. He used to be an admissions officer at a very desirable college. Yes, he can work the waitlist, and he will make calls for kids to nudge the schools into taking these kids. That's part of his job. He doesn't lie about the kids, he just gives them an extra boost if he can. [/quote]
