<p>It can be a tough wait. Hard to give advice about it since it’s so very personal how people anticipate things. We have been more concerned this year because my son did not apply to anything on a rolling or early basis so, we are hanging in there to the very end. It’s been tough on him that so many of his friends and classmates already know where they want to go or have some acceptances, and unnerving to hear of rejections when he has nothing on his plate at all. We knew this would be a risk doing it this way and now we are living the reality of it. </p>
<p>The saving grace is that he does have some schools that are certainly going to accept him. But anything other than a firm offer does not give a lot of comfort. It’ll feel good when he gets those offers of admissions. It’s a tough time for college kids.</p>
