Class of 2023
Dear Seniors & Parents,
Now that we are in the season when colleges start notifying seniors about their admissions decisions, we wanted to share a few words of advice.
-
If you are accepted, that is wonderful news. Celebrate your accomplishment, but please also be aware that some of your friends may not be getting the same good news. For that reason, we ask that you be sensitive to how you discuss or celebrate your acceptance(s).
-
If you are denied, please know that a denial does not define who you are or who you will be. Oftentimes, it is a pure numbers game, or, in some cases, the school really wasn’t a good fit for you. You undoubtedly will have choices of where to attend.
-
If you are deferred from Early Action or Early Decision or waitlisted, you will want to meet with your Post-Secondary counselor to discuss next steps.
-
Please remember to update your application outcomes in Scoir as you hear back from schools.
-
Check your email and college portals frequently to make sure you don't miss any potential deadlines for additional documentation!
-- Charlie, Karen and Susanne
"Applied" Column in Scoir --- After an application has been submitted, it is extremely important that students log into Scoir and move the college into the "Applied" column. Doing so allows Susanne to release the transcript and recommendations. Susanne cannot submit supporting documents until Scoir has been updated. Thank you!
