[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]U Chicago has been sending mail to my son urging him to apply. He would absolutely never get in. I can only think they're doing this to boost applications so they can remain super selective.[/quote] Maybe they have a higher opinion of your son than you do? [/quote] This entire thread makes me LOL. Do you all really think that admissions officers are doing some deep dive on your child BEFORE they send in an application, then gleefully rubbing their hands together and saying "haha, this kid will never get in, lets send lots of brochures so he'll be sure to apply!" That's not how marketing works. If you're getting a lot of mail from a school it means they want more applications from your zip code or demographic. It's not specific to YOUR CHILD.[/quote]
