[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kid probably wasn’t getting into the high reach and now doesn’t have to go through the rejection. It’s a win win.[/quote] +1. Unless you donated a wing to the school, the high reach would have been unlikely. But that's a tough thing to communicate to your kid. This outcome is a win-win for their self-esteem.[/quote] OP here - yes I told my kid that they probably wouldn't have gotten into the high reach because it's a low single digit admit rate. Kid responded that the admit rate for legacies at the high reach school was nearly identical to the unhooked admit rate at the ED LAC. Of course we are not the donate-a-wing type of legacy family so I don't know how much the big donors slant the legacy admit rate at the high reach, but I can't argue with the pure numbers. [/quote]
