[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. Reading this thread made me dizzy and sad for your kids. Most colleges don't care about demonstrated interest, and the ones that do don't care very much. [b]UVA, for example, is on record that it does not track interest. [/b] Parents who think that they need start scheduling tours in sophomore year to get an edge over other applicants are on overdrive. [/quote] Any university with over 34,000 applications a year doesn't need to track. SLACs no longer track either. I can't think of a single school we visited that did. The only ones that do are the ones that have financial issues or need your kid for a particular reason, like a 36 ACT score, and, generally, you don't want to pay to attend those.[/quote]
