[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of admission consultants are also calling it an "informal ED3" or "ED3 type" when the school asks the school-based counselor or student in advance of making the offer if the kid is 100% committed to accepting. If the counselor/student say yes, the student gets an acceptance in their portal that they are expected to accept. If a school-based counselor or student leads a college to believe they're 100% in and they're not and they don't end up accepting, it could hurt the credibility of the school with that college the following year.[/quote]

Pretty amazing that admissions consultants are at best perpetuating and at worst creating a climate of fear that benefits the schools. Whom do these consultants work for again?[/quote]
The etiquette around college admissions is pretty severe.  Despite all claims to the contrary, college admissions are a large part of the draw for private schools and the right private can the needle enough so that all things being equal, their graduates get accepted over an equally qualified public school candidate.[/quote]
