Colleges Calling Guidance Counselor?

<p>Hi, so I heard that if you're on the fence for a school, the school might call and ask your counselor something along these lines: "were really close to admitting him/her, but can you explain why he/shes a good student or why we should?" </p>

<p>this is really scary to think...my friend told me this happens once in a blue moon. </p>

<p>i didnt even think colleges had the time to call counselors or would even want to</p>
