| This thread has shown great supportive, loving and caring. You are wonderful parents and students. It is one of the best threads. I have no child on the Harvard waiting list. I come here as often as the parents who have kids on the waiting list. I am enjoying read your inspiring comments and share your anxiety. I feel that I somehow connected and knew you in person in this virtual world.
Best regards to you and your students.

| I am a new member too and am reading this thread with great interest. You can add my D to the list too. I think the longer the process, the less likely the kid would be interested as they have their mind all set for the committed school. | |

| New members...it would be helpful if when joining the list you could post the geographic area you are coming from (ditto for those who are already on the list without indicating your State or area). It does seem as if there is some effort on the part of admissions to deal with the waitlist on a region by region basis.
Thanks. | |

| Petpet, I agree-the kids are demonstrating how well adjusted they are by moving on and growing attached to their selected schools. | |

| Daisy1B, we are from N Cal.
Momcheckingin, the kids are a lot more mature today. My D told me that it is OK to go to so and so. As a parent, it is a bit sad to see that she put in the hard work, got great grades in all 4 years of high school and received the National Merit Scholarship but can't get to where she wanted to go.... | |

| Petpet, We all are in the same boat.
Where ever our kids end up going, they will do great! so not to worry. | |

| PetPet-I agree--all of these hard working, top scholars should get to go where they want. It is so different from when I was their age-basically, if you did well, you did get the college of your choice. We all had our children at the wrong time!!-now they have to be great with a little luck stirred in. | |

| Yes indeed it does seem that they are admitting students with some kind of geographical bias. We are in NYC. | |
