Anyone have a waitlist story with a happy ending?

<p>D was notified 4/9/11, she is off waitlist and has been accepted into Taft Class of 2014.</p>

<p>Cookbook, that’s terrific! I’m looking forward to reading more happy news such as yours in the next several days/weeks.</p>

<p>@cookbook: Taft is a wonderful school and one very much on the rise in my opinion. Your daughter will benefit from some much better than average food there as well! (Just threw that in because of your user name, but it’s absolutely true!)</p>

<p>Congratulations!</p>

<p>I hope to hear more happy stories today.</p>

<p>Congratulations @cookbookmom!</p>

<p>Taft is an amazing place and they have taken very good care of my daughter. She’s thriving, happy and a few times accidentally called it “home.” When you are visiting as a parent, you are treated the same way - like a member of the family.</p>

<p>(and yes - OMG - the new chef is so good I hate to come home to my own cooking.)</p>

<p>Thanks to all for congrats! I will pass them on to my daughter. She did all the work and can’t wait to get there!</p>

<p>Woo Hoo WOO HOO HOO…
Got a call from Concord Academy today - son is OFF the waitlist and so excited.
Thanks to all on CC that have been sending thoughts to the WL crowd …
and to any of you that turned down CA ;)</p>

<p>Smiles all round!</p>

<p>Congrats! That’s wonderful news for your son Mamakiwi! CA will def be on my d’s list next year.</p>

<p>@neato- I’m sure your D will get off a WL soon enough ;)</p>

<p>Mamakiwi, what wonderful news! It’s a marvelous school!</p>

<p>Rooting for you neato for this year!</p>

<p>@mamakiwi: Congratulations, I know it’s a great feeling! Go Cougars! ;-)</p>

<p>Happy for your wonderful news, Mamakiwi.</p>

<p>Congratulations to your son!</p>

<p>Congratulations Mamakiwi!</p>

<p>I’m still hoping for all the others who are waiting it out. Good luck everyone!</p>

<p>Hi folks, I just heard from a Choate mom that Choate was going to their waitlist and should be making calls soon. D has already chosen Hothckiss, but I thought I would pass it along. Good luck to all.</p>

<p>anyone have any idea whether middlesex is going to their waiting list?</p>

<p>cookbookmom,
My son got off the Taft waitlist too. They called last Saturday. He will be in 10th grade. We are all very happy.</p>

<p>Still waiting it out for two schools which aren’t likely to take off their WL. :frowning: The thought of writing there, conducting social research projects, and boarding school life…Ah, it’s hard to bear sometimes. But I have come through from this experience with a lot more knowledge about myself and…it’s been great. :slight_smile: (still hoping!)</p>

<p>lucky2011, Great news!!</p>
