Your application stands-as-is. But you can send in any update you want. I wouldn’t do an updated essay though. We can brainstorm more next year.

Just got rejected from Stanford. Feeling shattered as it was my dream school but yeah as the old guns say “the life must go on”. I have a question though, does being an international student and asking for full financial aid lower your chances of admission to need aware universities?

My son got in. Class of 2025. For what is worth, the prediction about the portal changes were true for us. His ‘update’ links disappeared around 2pm but his permanent and mailing addresses did not, and there is also a link to ‘edit’ them. I think they only keep the addresses of the kids that they will need to communicate with in the future, i.e. the kids that got in or got deferred.
To the students who were rejected, there are so many factors deciding the admission. Unlike British or Canadian universities, it is not always based on academic merit. On top of that, many kids took a gap year last year which left fewer spots for this year’s class.
