18 schools is very reasonable I think, especially now that it is so competitive. I will have just under 60 when done, which I know is very excessive, but I still think it is necessary to have many options.

You paid for 60 application fees?

No, I qualify for a few waiver and many of them would be free anyway since they have no application fee.

Such a hard waitā¦ received multiple responses but this one is the one we are waiting for! Which schools would you think admissions will be similar to? Auburn, Clemson, UGA, USC, Indiana etc
Why should affluent high schools get all the spots to a publicly funded state school?

Hard to tellā¦
It should be slightly easier than all of these schools, but probably closest to Auburn.

Hey Emma, donāt take all of that on your shoulders. My husband died when my kids were 12/9. I know where you and your mom are. Whatās most important is that you graduate from a program, no matter which one. There are plenty of good options and people make their way through all sorts of circumstances. Itās all going to work out. Be proud of your mom, sheās a strong and amazing role model for you!

My sonās portal now has the button for āLog into my SRARā on the Next steps tab. Anyone else? Iām thinking this is not a good sign if they are allowing him to update his application at this point.
No, not seeing that there. Did he complete his SRAR? Under āMaterials Received,ā we have āSRAR Academic Recordā showing as received with the date.
Yes, it was complete. Then he updated his SRAR for his trimester 1 grades a couple of days ago so maybe thatās why. When he clicks the button it does say itās linked and complete so perhaps itās fine. This is so nervewracking!
my daughterās SRAR thing (Log into my SRAR) never went away even though it says her app is complete and it has SRAR Academic Record under Materials Received. who knowsā¦I canāt with this anymore!!

We saw the same, āLog onto SRARā in the Next Steps Tab. We emailed our regional admissions counselor and she said that all was good. We also clicked on the Log onto SRAR button and it said that everything needed was submitted.
