<p>Is there a comprehensive list of deadlines available on-line of prep schools, which includes coed vs. one-sex, application deadlines, other requirements? Thanks.</p>
<p>Hi collegeparent,</p>
<p>I don’t know of any. [TABS:</a> Top College-Prep Independent Boarding Schools Directory](<a href=“http://www.Schools.com%5DTABS:”>http://www.Schools.com), [Search</a> for Colleges and Universities, Graduate Schools, Online Degree, Private Schools - Peterson’s](<a href=“http://www.petersons.com%5DSearch”>http://www.petersons.com), and [Boarding</a> School Review - College-Prep & Jr. Boarding Schools](<a href=“http://www.boardingschoolreview.com%5DBoarding”>http://www.boardingschoolreview.com) all have search functions, and you could narrow a search by different criteria.</p>
<p>Many schools list deadlines, but may consider applications after the deadline. As it’s January, I would recommend that you contact an educational consultant, if you wish to place a student for next year. Some schools apparently don’t wish to be known as schools which practice “rolling admissions,” so they don’t publicize the fact. An educational consultant would know which schools might fit your child, and which schools are looking for students. IECA is an association of educational consultants [Educational</a> Consultants - IECAonline.com | Home](<a href=“http://www.educationalconsulting.org/]Educational”>http://www.educationalconsulting.org/).</p>
<p>Thanks for that. Am interested in PG years for current HS seniors; know that most prep schools consider them later on the spring, part of “rolling admissions.” </p>
<p>Any schools you can think of where such delayed admissions are considered for those looking at a PG year vs. college?</p>
<p>collegeparent, I have no idea. My children are still too young for me to have had to research this. Also, a PG year is a very specialized topic. There are different reasons for wanting to do a PG year, and I think they affect the school choice. Many elite schools offer PG years, but the opinion on this board seems to be that the schools primarily recruit athletes for those slots.</p>
<p>It’s logical to think that the admissions for such spots would lag behind the regular admissions season, as many high school seniors decide to take a PG year when they are dissatisfied with the outcome of their college applications. </p>
<p>You can do a search for “postgraduate,” in this forum, and see what turns up. Your child’s high school guidance counselor may also be a good resource, depending on his or her experience. </p>
<p>I’d recommend an educational consultant, though. There isn’t anything publicly available which would let you gauge a school’s positive effects for PGs. The only thing which would be halfway reliable would be the experience an educational consultant might have, from feedback from clients place in past years.</p>
