Do colleges notify the HS if a student is accepted?

Applying to College

<p>I was wondering if high schools' counseling departments get a notification that one of their students is accepted to a college, or if the communication is limited to the student and the college.</p>

<p>Formally, no. But you can imagine the scenario where a principal/guid counselor knows a specific admissions officer and the topic comes up for discussion.</p>

<p>I don’t think so.</p>

<p>At Ds high school, the students self-report if they are admitted or denied so that the guidance office can enter it into the naviance system. I don’t think colleges contact schools directly, but like T26E4 stated, I’m sure there are conversations between gc’s and adcoms.</p>

<p>Georgetown did. Son applied EA. His HS GC knew of his acceptance the same day that we did.</p>
