@Themclos Of course the Stanford article is satirical and silly! It just shows again how the whole college admissions process has gotten out of hand and for many it feels like a crapshoot. Look back, see the poor students worry at meeting the app deadlines and then on the edge of their seats waiting for admissions to come out. Students on here identified that the portal was accessible before the mailed acceptances. When others wondered why they couldn’t access their portal and became concerned, of course they called admissions. Those that bucked the mail system posted their annoyance at those that called admissions and blamed them for the portals shutdown. Can you blame them for calling admissions? In reference to the admissions guidance, I have heard (hate to use that word) that most students that use these services get into most if not all of the schools applied. They help them do the app, write the essay…
