Someone upstream posted about what happens if the ED school announces sooner than expected? 5 out of 8 of my daughter’s schools released earlier than expected last year, some weeks earlier than we thought. AND interestingly, her top choice EA school (she didn’t apply anywhere ED), was LATE by nearly a month!
I also agree with @blossom. Your child needs a solid LOR from the GC. You don’t want to give that person any reason to be less than 100% positive about your student.
