D deferred from her first choice Georgetown, very disappointed but handling it well, am really proud of her. It helped that all but one ("mom, she's freaky smart") of the 7 or so who applied to Georgetown from her very competitive HS also got deferred. Since her twin (S) is into two schools (UVM and Case Western), think D is wishing she took my advice and did EA somewhere else too, since she's realizing it's just as hard that she's not in anywhere yet as it is that she's not in at Georgetown.
Cornmuffin I laughed when I read your post about being done with the college visits. We have twin A applying to 15 schools, twin B applying to 10 schools. We visited about the same number of schools you did. Didn't have to fight any snowstorms this round of applications, but fought a blizzard trying to get to Vanderbilt and Emory when my oldest---now sophomore at Wash U St. Louis---was applying
Don't think we're done yet, we didn't make it to a couple that were far away and may visit them if relevant twin is accepted.
Also really on the fence about Case Western---loved the campus, think the engineering programs look great. Don't understand why it's yield is so low, and big reservations about some areas of Cleveland. Any input would be really welcome....
