[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It wasn't the rejection that I had the strongest reaction to - i[b]t was that the AO for the school told DC's high school college counselor that because both parents were alum, and DC had the academic credentials that DC would get in. [/b] Then guidance counselor relayed this message to DC. Since the admit rate for the school is now around 5% I tried to prepare DC for rejection, but was told by DC that the counselor knew more than I did, and I was just being a downer. When the rejection arrived all I could do was tell DC I was sorry it didn't work out, and that he was fortunate to have other options.[/quote] In writing? If not, you should have taken this nice talk with a grain of salt. 5% admin rate TODAY is so tough. I am sorry OP and hope that your DC has another strong contender. [/quote] S/he did.[/quote]
