<p>I don't know if this is true or not but for someone applying ED to a school, is it common for the school to call into the guidance counselors to check your CURRENT grades? I know we have to send in the mid-year report and all that stuff but I'm talking the ACTUAL grades you have right now in your classes. Just the thought of this is kinda scaring me. Not doing too well in a couple of my classes because of all these college apps haha</p>
<p>My S is a freshman in college. Last year he applied ED to a school. His guidance counselor shared (after the fact) that the school did call to find out his in-progress grades his senior year. His application was submitted in mid-November. Fortunately his grades were in good shape. He was admitted ED in mid-December.</p>
<p>may I ask which school he applied to?</p>
<p>Bowdoin College.</p>
