<p>Just a thought, but it’s possible that the perceived lack of understanding from admissions/Prado is due to pressure put on them, and not because of how they are personally. The incoming class is still really big from what I’ve heard, and we’re still cutting it very close as far as accommodating all the students who currently have a spot reserved, so it’s absolutely possible that the people working admissions have been told not to make any more exceptions or admits to the incoming class to ensure that the chances of staying overenrolled is minimal. I’ll admit I have no idea who Prado is (or, in fact, anybody in admissions, since I have no connection with them whatsoever), but I don’t think it’s really terribly reasonable to assume that their unwillingness to bend the rules is a result of some unhelpful mentality, you know?</p>
