[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you, when I looked at it it seemed off, but my Friday afternoon brain couldn't figure it out. Spelling is not our family's forte. (nor is typing :) )[/quote] Yeah, I know. Friday brain is the worst. But, funny story, and true: some kids apply to so many colleges they get sloppy with the online submissions. A director of admissions visiting at our schools said PLEASE PLEASE make sure you have changed the name of the school to which your are applying "I have always wanted to go to Carleton" when applying to Georgia Tech. and please please make sure you spell the name of the college correctly. Cracked me up. Our DS came home from school saying his college advisor told him to apply to DartMOUTH. Told him he had to get the pronunciation right before we apply.[/quote]
