I have permission from College Confidential to post here.
My name is Colleen Barrett, and I am a writer for Ozy.com. It is creating a standalone site in partnership with Discover Student Loans, and I am writing a story for it. I’m interested in interview a few students and parents about stress during the college admissions process. If you are (or did) experience a lot of stress or anxiety while you or your child applied to college, please describe it in the thread below and what — if anything — you did to manage it that was helpful.
Thank you!
