<p>If you know you want to attend SLC pursue it as hard as you can. SLC has a 32% yield. In order to get 380 freshman they need to accept almost 1200 people. So, obviously, there are hundreds of kids around the US who are planning to say “no” to SLC. There are several people from my S’s school who may also be saying “no”. We’ll see. Lets hope that enough say no so that the OP gets in, but Keats1, a pragmatist, is not way off base on this one.</p>
