Oberlin app was submitted last night and we managed to get through it all with very few Common App issues. The school we had decided not to worry about finally downloaded the rest of his materials so I guess they're back on the ball now.
The cool news though, is he competed in Business Professionals of America regionals today and he placed for Extemporaneous Speech, Advanced Interviewing Skills, and Parliamentary Procedure. So, he's going to States again this year! Last year he ended up qualifying for Nationals and went to to Disney World. This year, Nationals are only in Indianapolis- not nearly as exciting. As President of his school's chapter, he's quite proud that 18 of the 21 kids who competed today from his chapter qualified for states. He believes they were more organized and did more prep work in advance this year.
So, he's going to email the admissions folks from his most competitive schools and ask if that information can be added to his application package. Anything to keep his name on their radar, I think.
