On October 6th, I submitted an Early Decision application to an Ivy with a coach’s promise of “full support.” He mentioned that he would be pursuing a Likely Letter for me, and that I could expect it within a week of my application’s receipt by the Admissions office. At this point, I still have not received the letter, and I wanted to know what that means. Is it possible the admissions office wants to see my first quarter grades (one of which is, unfortunately, a C+ in AP Calc AB – all the others are As and A-s)? Some of my previous posts discuss my academics in greater detail, but to be succinct, I had a pre-read at this school and it came back with a “green light to move forward.” Any thoughts?
