[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Many schools have not issued Early Decision decisions yet, and won't until the end of the week (or later). Have your kid call AND email the admissions office on MONDAY MORNING that he has had a sudden change of circumstances and he needs his application moved to Regular Decision.

Your kid should send the email to the general email address for the admissions office AND the admissions officer for his high school/state/region (you can find that person's info online -- most places have this public) and CC you (parent email) and his school counselor on the email. Problem could potentially be solved as long as he does this ASAP, depending on school. And yes, your child should be the one doing this. Make sure the subject line is clear about the change to regular decision. Tell your kid to include their full name, DOB, and HS name in their email.

Also have your child CALL the admissions office on MONDAY MORNING to ask for the same.

Schools don't want to admit kids in ED who are definitively not coming; if they can still do so operationally, they will change the round. Your kid's window of opportunity here is very short.[/quote]

+1. This is the perfect answer.[/quote]
