Best of luck to him. I feel like he will end up where he is supposed to end up. My sister had her heart set on Middlebury. Applied ED and got deferred. Then denied. She was heartbroken. She went to Sarah Lawrence instead and then applied to transfer to Middlebury for sophomore year. Denied again. She ended up transferring to Barnard and found her people and loved her three years there. I had my heart set on Georgetown but was denied. Ended up at Boston College and cannot imagine having gone anywhere else. And it’s funny three of my closest friends from BC had all wanted a different school but ended up at BC and we all still talk about how it just felt like the right school for us once we were there. I am trying hard to make sure my S24 keeps in mind that every school on his list should be one he would be thrilled to attend. In today’s admission climate, I feel like there are no guarantees. Best of luck to your son
