I agree with above posters - celebrate today! It’s the effort that counts - tackling those apps takes a lot of grit and self-reflection, especially for young teens. A rejection may be the first big disappointment they will have to face. Even if they’re not offered admission, the process of putting their best foot forward academically and presenting themselves to an admission committee is to be applauded. When one door closes, another opens. This may sound trite, but we all know it is true.
Having completed this application process will serve them well down the road when they embark on the college search process. You’ll all look back and realize the stress you feel now was all just a walk in the park compared to the craziness of college admissions
