[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That it matters how much your high school has a recent history of being “liked” by a college. No matter if the stats and the application are great, if the college doesn’t traditionally take many or any from your school, it is that much harder. Not a deal breaker but helps to set expectations [/quote] +1 my biggest piece of advice to students/parents is to look carefully at Naviance (or equivalent) to check historical admissions data and also how many from your school are applying that year. Helps guide strategy and set expectations. To give just one example, Swat does not like our school for some reason. Students have mostly stopped applying as a result. [/quote]
