dd know that you are not alone in this as SMC mom alluded to it really is a trying experience for both the S or D and the family when the child wants something this bad and it really is in somebody elses hands. Two years ago my D went thru the same thing, had everything she needed to be there and got the treaded thin envelope,for six months I tried to prepare her for this eventuality and when she was waitlisted and never selected she was heartbroken. She went to SMC and turned down an Ivy (penn) just to be closer to ND and loved it,the experience I think made her more determined and she worked very hard and now she is in ND,she did say that no matter what happened and even if she never got in she was happy with her chice to go to SMC which is a wonderful place in its own right. Good luck and no matter what happens the kids always seem to bounce back. I think we tend to take somethings worse then they do…
