<p>my counselor called the morning after the results came out for a friend and i, both of whom were deferred. she actually chatted about our applications with our regional rep, but i only had a second to talk to her about what happened and she did mention that they reviewed my supplementary materials and said they were strong. i don’t know how much else they discussed, but i’ll try to find out. my counselor is extremely well-known in college admissions so she tends to get the inside scoop with things like these.</p>
