I need the wisdom of a parent...

<p>Dearest CC Parents,</p>

<p>I am currently going through the tedious process of applying to colleges. Along with several thousands of other students, I also have a tremendous fear of being denied (REJECTED) admissions. </p>

<p>For those of you who have had experience with something like that - would you mind sharing your story? How it turned out, and what tips you would give?</p>

<p>It makes me really happy to see how parents are involved in helping other kids with their lives :)</p>

<p>DS, read the thread here in the Parents Forum on Rejected/Deferred from EA/ED. It has several dozen stories from last year.</p>
