Tis the season for the fat envelope or the skinny envelope. Did your kid get into (________)?
Go ahead fill in the blank.
Was it Stanford?
If it was, I hope your student was one of the 2,144 students who got in for the new class of 2019.
And if your kid chose to sit out a year before applying, don’t despair. If he or she was holding out to be a part of the Class of 2020, you can’t blame your kid for wanting to be a 2020 visionary.
Coincidentally, Stanford released its numbers on Friday, March 27, the same day their women’s team got trounced by Norte Dame in the Women’s basketball NCAA Sweet 16.
At least the school had the decency to give those who didn’t get in an opportunity to realign their loyalties and vigorously root against the Cardinals and get some sense of artificial revenge.
