College Admissions Tips

Overall, it seems like good advice. About wait lists he writes:

The most important thing to keep in mind is that you, the student, have to do all of this yourself. If your parents or counselor make these calls or send these e-mails, you are going to be labeled a wimp and left on the wait-list forever. First, call the admissions office to get the e-mail address of, and maybe speak to, the officer who handled applications from your high school. Tell that person who you are and what high school you attend so she can pull up your file. Say you were very happy to get the wait-list letter because it means you still have a chance to go to this college.
