Thank you! S24 had a great college application season because he stayed focused not on prestige or “brand” but more on fit and curriculum. He was thrilled with every outcome. He even saw the waitlists as a positive rather than a negative. The only mild disappointment was with the WL at Georgetown’s SFS, as he attended a Jesuit high school and had a load of national honors and awards based on diplomacy and service. He quickly pivoted after SFS disappointment and actually considers it a blessing that GU didn’t work out. It’s true what all the CC folks say-students ultimately find where they’re meant to be. It’s not a convenient rationalization, it’s the natural consequence of a thoughtful approach to college applications.
