<p>Whether it was worth it to apply? Well, none of us can tell you if you’ll get in. You’ll know that soon enough.</p>
<p>But even if you don’t, having gone through the application process will help you tremendously when it comes time to apply to college . . . really! The experience you’ve had will make college applications infinitely easier. That probably doesn’t make you feel any better right now, but you’ll appreciate it in a year or two.</p>
<p>If you don’t believe me, go look at the college side of the forum where the kids are panicking about every little detail of their applications. Compared to them, any of you who’ve applied to boarding school, whether or not you got in, will be “old pros” when it comes time to apply to college.</p>
