I ran with that chance. I ask my college counselor regularly what I needed to do to change that “deferred” into an “acceptance”. He gave me great advice, to stay in contact with the regional director from the school and get my grades up. I made sure I worked harder in the next month than I had ever worked. I received A’s in all subjects. It is prudent that in order for the admissions committee to give my candidacy the fullest consideration – additional information should be submitted. I sent them two letters reiterating my success in grades and my continued desire to attend their college.
Schools prefer students who prefer them and I made sure I let them know I prefer them! I let them know that I did not submit any Early Decision II application to any other college.
It definitely gives you an advantage and ultimately the deferred was turned into an acceptance!
