| at top private schools it's nearly impossible because most of them make it a policy to not to consider appeals. for example harvard could fill their freshman class several times over with qualified applicants and they don't want all of them appealing their rejections simply because they don't have enough room in the class. only appeal if the original application was missing information/materials or if you have recently won a very significant award/received significant distinction. i'm currently in the process of appealing a decision at a top school and let me tell you i'm putting my heart and soul into it but it's still going to be a long shot. good luck. |
