<p>everyone has been geting either waitlisted or rejected. has anyone been accepted? i got into SPS</p>
<p>At Andover, yes. I got waitlisted at SPS. Still waitin' for Exeter.</p>
<p>I got into Andover. I'm waiting for mail, so I won't here about my others until Monday.</p>
<p>To those students accepted: Congratulations! Just a note to encourage all of you to attend the revisit days for each school which you are seriously considering attending. It is fun, informative and you get to meet your potential future classmates who, for the most part, will also have multiple choices of private schools. Attending one school's revisit can yield enlightening info. about the other schools on your accepted or waitlisted list. For example,a few years ago several boarding schools within a few hours drive of New York City that also accepted day students were experiencing drug issues. Parents will orally share this type of info. with other parents in person while reluctant to do so elsewhere in other forums. Also info. on other matters is shared such as hazing or administrative turmoil as well as a lot of positive information. Go to as many revisits as you can because it is a wonderful social and learning experience.</p>
<p>Garrity, am I reading your post correctly? Are you saying that going to revisit one school will yield info about another school? How so?</p>
<p>Choate, so far :)</p>
<p>accepted at taft</p>
<p>accpeted by lawrenceville</p>
<p>Congrats all!</p>
<p>accepted at andover. =]</p>
<p>Well, I'm accepted to my local public high school. :D</p>
<p>Congrats Chaos! How does it feel? ;)</p>
<p>It's an amazing feeling! I can't wait to attend, even though I've been going there for months! :D</p>
<p>I must say, if anyone wanted evidence of how competitive prep school admissions are this year, they would have to look no further than this board. All of these amazing, extrodinarily qualified applicants getting rejected or waitlisted--it's insane.</p>
<p>Honestly, it's been no different than in recent years. I think the older posters have been trying to get across that it's a complex game and a list of good stats is just the start. </p>
<p>And to be honest, this board had a lot of applicants that were not in the easiest pools. There were few legacies and athletes and lots of people needed aid.</p>
<p>Everyone please write honest post mortems for next year's crew.</p>
<p>hah , chaos . same for me .
this is just another opportunity . a bonus if i get into andover .
but public high school's cool too .</p>
<p>MY SIS got into EXETER...YEAH> :) i am soooooo happi for her, and for all of you..congratz</p>
<p>this board helped give me alot of tips while applying i dont think i would have gotten accepted if it were not for this haha</p>
<p>when should international students reciecve decisions by mail? because taft and st. george are the only schools that haven't sent an e-mail.</p>
<p>Yeah, I'm really excited about going to my local public school. I feel so honored! I can't wait for the challenge! All of my intellectual peers and exciting electives (Child Care, anyone?).. how exciting! I love all of the sports they offer (0) and AP classes (0) and so many Honors classes (0)! I'm just jumping up and down I can't contain myself!!!! I love all of the clubs there (0) and I love how they have such a wide selection of classes (14)! You guys!!! Who else got accepted? I'm sorry for those who got rejected -- what an amazing opportunity! I'm going for revisits Monday morning!!</p>
