[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]An Admissions Director who drops this kind of hint is taking a chance that it won’t come back and bite them. [/b] The Admissions process at these schools is difficult to predict. There can always be unexpected twists and turns. A candidate who seemed to be a sure thing might be edged out at the end of the process by any number of unpredictable forces or events. That would leave the Admissions Director with egg on their face and some very angry parents that feel they had been misled or lied to. So, why should they take the chance? It’s all risk and no reward. Especially if the temporarily happy parents can’t restraint themselves from sharing the news with others. These people might want to get the same type of assurance from the AD. It’s far, far better for them to keep their cards close to their vests. [/quote] Correct, because the admissions director does not make the decisions. He/ is mostly an administrator of the process. That's what people forget--he may sit on the committee but decisions are always made by committee. [/quote]
