When it comes time to actually getting offers from schools, understand they're saying the same thing to a lot more kids than they have spots or money for. We've learned if they say they're interested but won't schedule a time to get you on campus for an official, you're probably a lower priority and a backup for their first choice. This is all okay, but it's stressful for the kid. Don't stall if you have what you feel is a good fit.
