Is your daughter currently on the waitlist at Harvard for the class of 2025? If so, adding an essay or coach input might help move her to the top of the list. If your daughter is a junior in high school or younger, the request seems unusual and is worth a follow-up call with the coach. We experienced one high academic LAC that required an essay as part of the pre-read process, and my son still gives me grief for making him write that essay. I doubt this is the reason for the request, but we had the distinct impression that some schools wanted to hear “You are my #1 choice” before they would show their cards (In relationship terms, they wanted to hear “I love you” before they would say “I love you, too.”)
