@momcollege: Sometimes even excellent students with top scores, leadership, and strong essays get rejected from schools that feel like a total no-brainer. Why? This is called yield protection .. colleges reject or waitlist overqualified applicants to avoid lowering their yield (percentage of admitted students who actually enroll). 👉 How to combat it: • Show strong demonstrated interest (campus visit, info session, follow on socials) • Open emails and click links they send • Write a compelling “Why Us” essay that shows specific reasons • Consider applying Early Decision or Early Action to signal commitment Like, Comment, Save, Share and Follow College Mom for more real college admissions strategy #college #collegeadmissions #collegeapplications #collegemom #highschool
