[quote=Anonymous]OP, nearly everyone from 11:37 has given you very strong advice. Some of the challenge is we DK what your DC wants but can only infer from the ED (NU), EA (Tulane), and state school apps. Perhaps consider Denison (similar to Bucknell) and a few others of that size as likelies/targets. At the end of the day, only your DC can get themselves into a school. The era of CCOs working magic is long gone. Yes, they can be helpful, truly so, but nothing to count on in this phase (especially as the CCO should’ve suggested one more round @ ACT and ED1 to Tulane). If your DC is set with the schools where he is, then focus on Bucknell and talk with a professional about Colgate, Emory, Wake, WUSTL. Forget the rest of the list (unless your DC is willing to start Feb @ Middlebury [and still a long, long shot with that]). All best![/quote]
