| My husband graduated from Stanford, so when my son applied, we thought he had a decent shot. He is in top 2% of his class, National Merit Scholar, 2300 SAT, Eagle Scout, marching band 4 years, AP Scholar, etc. etc. He was waitlisted in April; found out this week that he will not be admitted. He has accepted a generous scholarship from USC and is very excited. He was initially disappointed by being waitlisted, but quickly "moved on" and didn't seem upset when notified of Stanford's rejection. |
