That’s awesome! What sort of “extras” does she bring to the table in this admission pool of so many great students.

She had an alumni interview in January. She got an email from the AO last Tuesday and she spoke with her later that evening. After telling her over the phone, she sent the likely letter immediately via email and we are expecting the official one in the mail.

We are in Tennessee

Not sure what sways these admission decisions really.

She has strong academics and her soccer team has won state twice.

She has pioneered a mentoring program between middle and high schoolers and won a Jefferson award for that in our city.
She works with the Mayor’s office also to crea and organize programs for the youth in the city.

She felt very good about her interview and the AO said she loved her essays.

So checks a lot of boxes with state and regional awards. Seems like at min that’s what’s needed these days.
Good luck to her! She sounds like a great person.
