EmmyBet – congrats on your D actually making time for her mini-app!

D has 2 to do. I called one school and the admissions lady gave me an email address of a specific admissions officer and said, “here’s where you send the info about how your grades are still great and all the new awards you’ve won and why our school is your first choice and how you’ll come here if you get off the waitlist”. They must see the same thing so many times…

Good question about how long you have to respond once you get the nod. I believe they notify the child by phone. Do they make it clear to the kid how long they have to respond? It’s like being offered sports tickets – if you don’t take them up on it, they’ll move on to the next person.
