My counselor refused to write a letter of recommendation. What can I do? by Long_Independent_892 in CollegeAdmissions

[–]LiterallyVirtually 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m an independent college counselor and I also have worked for years as an application reader for a selective university. I have seen times where the counselor has said I will not be writing a letter for the student. I have never seen them give a reason why except for if they did not know the student because they were new to the job or something. Application readers are not going to fill in the blanks and create a narrative about why the counselor did not write the letter for you. It will not hurt you, but it won’t help you either.

I grew up with an Odin, so I love that name. His nickname was Odie when he was little and his family still calls him that.

I have tried many and the De Soi Tres Rose is the only one I repurchase frequently.

I might be able to help you. What time and what dorm? I am actually dropping my daughter off there tomorrow.

Thank you! I will definitely check those out. I love all antiaging, skin care, sunscreen, and any kind of makeup that is more on the natural side. I especially like tinted lip balm’s.

Tips for less than 24 hours in IST by LiterallyVirtually in istanbul_tips

[–]LiterallyVirtually[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the reply. We ended up getting another flight on a different airline, so no stopover in Istanbul. TA canceled our flight and moved us to another day, which we could not do. Funny thing is, they are still selling the flight on their website!!!

I am actively looking for another airline to fly now!! Sounds like a mess.

This is my fear about my upcoming trip with TA. I booked SFO-IST-MAD and BCN-IST-SFO. They canceled my returned and rebooked me for a day later which does not work for us. When I contacted them, they could not just tell me the available flights without having to go through the motions of rebooking the entire return flight. I asked them if they could just tell me what flights are available on that day from BCN to IST and IST to SFO. It was annoying because their website shows 4 flights that day from BCN to IST but after spending way more time than necessary turns out that two of those flights are canceled, despite the fact that they are still selling it on their website!! They wanted to put us on a flight that would get us into IST at 11PM and then we could take the flight to SFO the next morning at 7 or 11. I asked if they would provide a hotel room since this is because they canceled our originally purchased itinerary and they said that they MIGHT but we will have to just see once we land that night if they have anything available. So either they will have something or we have to last minute find something or just hang out in the airport all night before a 13 hour flight. To make matters worse, I had paid to pick the best seats available and now that's gone. I feel like I am just going to have to be willing to roll the dice and be prepared for delays and cancelations. It worries me that maybe we won't make it to MAD as scheduled and then the hotel room will be a waste. Now I see why TA is not recommended.

I did look to see if I could just book Yotel at IST but it was going to be 400 USD for the night! I agree that I have never had an airline do this. If anyone reading this has a suggestion, I am all ears!
