[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it's a very hard admissions year out there. Maybe your DD would feel better knowing that just like she was waitlisted some places, ridiculous numbers of students who applied to Grinnell, for example, were waitlisted this year, including my senior with higher GPA and test scores. (I'm sure people could say the same for the other "safeties" on her list.) Supposedly Grinnell got 10,000 applications for fewer than 500 spots So while your DD treated it like a safety, it was a lottery for even those with high stats, and she got in. Congratulations![/quote]
