I’m with you there, partner. But we don’t know that admissions departments ask faculty and administration to write those letters. It is strange why that happens and then the kid doesn’t get in.</p>

<p>My D received praise letters and my wife and I received parents letters, including one from the president of another college, but in the end they did not demonstrate the same level of interest (translation: merit scholarship) as Oberlin did, despite basically ignoring my little girl until RD decision time. We assumed she would be rejected by Oberlin because she did NOT receive any attention from faculty, administration, admissions, etc., like other applicants.</p>
