Congrats on your son's success, this is a big summer for him + you are probably in for a wild ride! Interest begets more interest most of the time. I loved GO44Dad's response above that coaches can carry convo (prediction is spot on too)! One suggestion I hope might help him when dealing with the phone calls is to find one of the spare notebooks that didn't get used this year. Start with those top 3 schools and record a synopsis of what was talked about, what needs to be done next, etc. each time it occurs for that particular school. Leave 5 to 7 blank pages in between schools. That way a year or more of notes can be made or a page can be crossed through, if it is not a good fit, then you can start on another school directly following a "no go." Another thought is develop a list of 20 to 25 questions that he can ask as the process moves along. I can probably find our old list of questions around somewhere, if you have any interest just let me know.
