<p>D just heard that she’s accepted off the waitlist! They called her high school, and they passed on the news. And here’s the part that really amazed us–beyond writing the initial email “Yes, I’d like to stay on the waitlist” (which she tried to make charming, but it was <em>really</em> brief and basic), she hasn’t communicated with them at all. We had completely written it off, and she’s been getting excited about her other (non-Ivy) school. NOW there’s a big decision! yikes.</p>
