This is fake. If you were really going to do a library you know to do it in conjunction with the application.

Dartmouth deny in ED. Should have paid attention to how they are trying to reinvent themselves.

+1. Northwestern is nothing but a stress bomb

ugh -- this is our fear/dilemma. VaTech should practically be a safety for DS and he likes the school - I just never imagined he'd need to use his ED on it. And even then maybe not accepted. yuck. Sorry for your kid.

Shocked, SHOCKED that their child wasn't accepted.

On the bright side you didn’t contribute to the Penn president’s $23M salary.

Even worse. They are saying Penn won’t get the kid’s presidential library after they serve. Gag …

Or maybe, despite your child's legacy status, they just weren't that good?

They could probably sense the entitlement and said no thanks.

What a joke. I’d rather admit that tour guide over your legacy kid as well. Why should your kid get any bump at all?

I feel like Penn is correct that kids who check those boxes make a better freshman class than a bunch of 3rd generation legacies.

If so, to what school and what would you do differently?

Please don’t answer if your child’s ED was a success or ED wasn’t used.
