It’s really, really hard though when schools don’t give us a single button to click. Unless it’s there, there isn’t any option but to keep the app pending. [/quote]

It's very odd to me, from a security standpoint, when schools *don't* have a button in the portal. Other options seem like it would open the door to [b]bad actors declining students' acceptances/withdrawing their applications under false pretenses. [/b]

For those who have said students should call the admissions office: how do you think the person answering the phone is going to verify that the person on the other end truly is the applicant? Likewise, emails coming from outside the portal. And yes, I am sure there are safeguards a school can implement -- but the biggest safeguard at all would be a button in the portal. [/quote]

Yes, all over the news when this happens, am I right? We read hundreds of stories of people waiting for results and when they don’t come, they find out from admissions a stranger pulled their app. If only this would stop!!![/quote]

Students try to sabotage each other all the time. This happened in my town this year: https://06880danwoog.com/2024/01/18/college-admissions-stress-a-sad-tale-of-student-sabotage/[/quote]
