<p>Thanks for your posts!! All great gems!!</p>
<p>For parents/students new to CC, here is a thread that lists some (not all) Hidden Gems. <a href=“2013-14 Hidden Gem Applicant Thread - Prep School Admissions - College Confidential Forums”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/prep-school-admissions/1545276-2013-14-hidden-gem-applicant-thread-p1.html</a></p>
<p>Congratulations! And to all the parents/students still waiting for decisions- All the best and good luck!!</p>
<p>Hoping to get answers on the final two schools today. I’m relieved to see no one else has posted about Culver Academies results yet, so at least I can assume they didn’t forget us. Three days of angst is just way too much. </p>
<p>How about Millbrook? Has anyone other than international students heard from them? </p>
<p>My daughter is most likely attending Solebury…it’s btwn this school and LaGuardia (specialized performing arts school NYC) but we should have our answer this evening. </p>
<p>Ugh. Mail just came today. No letters/packets from remaining schools. Will have to wait at least another 24hrs. </p>
<p>@NYCMomof3 - I may have told you this already but one of my neighbors is a Solebury grad and one of the smartest and coolest people I know. That said, the LaGuardia is nothing to sneeze at!</p>
<p>I’m attending kent next fall I got it by default cuz it was the only school that accepted me but I secretly liked it over the selective schools HEHEE I mean of course I feel a bit ennnhhhh but I know that when I attend the revisit I’m gonna fall in love with it again cuz I’ll be seeing it through different eyes :)</p>
<p>Is anyone on financial aid waiting list anywhere ?</p>
<p>My son is on the financial aid waitlist at Vermont Academy</p>
<p>@momof5ct I’m on the financial wait list at Westminster and pomfret :)</p>
<p>@Momof7thgrader thanks for reminding me of that…I do remember you mentioning that a while back. She’s having a really hard time getting over the heartbreak of not being able to attend her top school. She was accepted without FA and I wish the letter would have been a RJ…because the fact that it’s an accept but we can’t afford it is just making her sad…really sad. I need to let her grieve that school and hopefully she will be excited over her other option. I am going to have her read what you just posted about your neighbor. Thx! </p>
<p>I was accepted at Mercersburg Academy. It is the only school I applied to because my local school is actually pretty good (I’m currently in the tenth grade). It’s campus is more beautiful than the vast majority of colleges. And I can only imagine it improving even further with the 100M donation they received this fall.</p>
<p>I was accepted at Stevenson! Like @JerseyGirl999 I liked it better than the more “prestigious” schools I applied to but still felt disappointed when it was the only one I was accepted to. That’s ok though, because it really is a fabulous school and its the right place for me!
Anyone else going to Stevenson next year? Probably not many on CC, but if anyone is I’d be excited to hear from you!</p>
<p>I was accepted to the Hill if that counts as a gem… I hope so!</p>
<p>I think you will be pleasantly surprised…</p>
<p>@JerseyGirl999 I was also accepted at Kent! What grade are you? </p>
<p>Christchurch! Congratulations, I love that school! Mine got into Miller School of Albemarle, another hidden gem I wish we’d applied to Christchurch. love their oyster farm</p>
