I have always been an appreciator of clearly listed Dos and Don’ts. If you, or someone you know, has been wait-listed by the institution of higher learning that they’re just dying to get into, Allen Grove has a solid set of instructions for how to deal with said situation.

There are actionable items on the Do list, so you can put your spastic antsy-ness to productive use. There’s also a very helpful list of what NOT to do (seriously, don’t cave your world in on yourself before you’ve even graduated from high school by letting your parents call the admissions office to offer up a high-volumed piece of their minds. Be a (wo)man and solve your own crises).

And, as always, please remember that there is no medically documented case of any teenager actually disintegrating as a direct result of not getting into their first choice school. I can pretty much guarantee that everything will work out, regardless of the matriculation location.
