Start here (2 mins): Avoid the Auto-Freeze trap
The High-Impact Mistake Parents & Students Make
It's called the Auto-Freeze Trap. If you don't understand it, you might lock yourself out of better colleges.
The Golden Rule
Never place too many "Safe" choices inside the current round freeze-zone. Round-I top 1, Round-II top 3, Round-III top 6 can trigger Auto-Freeze.

Auto-Freeze Zone by Round
❌ The Trap
You get Random College. Better options locked forever.
✅ The Smart Way
You get the highest option you qualify for.
How Auto-Freeze Works
Student put SAFE at #1 and got auto-freezed in Round-II top-3 zone
In CAP Round-II, allotment inside the first three listed choices blocked all better options placed below. Keep SAFE options below your realistic match band.
