A good admissions counselor should be responding. I suppose it depends on the level of selectivity, but, for most colleges, they are trying to fill seats in a competitive market so it’s in their best interest to be responsive.

But, yeah, they’re busy. They are attending conferences, still traveling and hosting events, dealing with FA appeals, etc. Plus hosting the first of the junior events working toward next year.

The good news is that after next month you won’t deal with admissions again. I wouldn’t let this color your opinion of the college as a whole unless things really get ridiculous.
