[quote=Anonymous]Bowdoin parent here. Unless there’s another hook, I would push Colby and Hamilton as ED1 and ED2. I would only use the ED1 hook if one of the coaches is willing to support her. What you have to understand is that lots of kids who are in the range will be deferred and rejected. Being in the range doesn’t get you in. In general, at these small Nescac schools, each kid brings something extra to the table: a sport, a development case, the child of a political leader or influential business person, a child from the inner city who is a mathematical genius but hasn’t had opportunities … So your student needs to have a something extra to be supported - and sports are powerful. I would limit her use of ED to schools where there’s coach support. [/quote]
