Choate Decisions

<p>48 minutes left!!!!</p>

<p>Has anyone received a Fedex package/letter today? Or does anyone know if those who are accepted will get them today? I know some schools have students receiving packages today but I don’t have any information on Choate.</p>

<p>They’re out early!</p>

<p>Choate is available online</p>

<p>Wait listed due to “inability to offer [me] financial assistance.” Welp. That is unfortunate.</p>

<p>Denied :(( </p>

<p>@prepdreams I’m sorry. That’s terrible that they’re waitlisting you because of something you can’t control. I hope all ends well for you! </p>

<p>I got accepted.</p>

<p>@prepdreams they should at least put you on Financial aid waitlist, sorry!</p>

<p>Wait listed …highly qualified…unable to offer acceptance due to financial aid ;(</p>

<p>Tried for 8. Wait listed on 7 waiting for andover. No fed ex package. Feeling deflated ;(</p>

<p>Waitlisted.</p>

<p>arg, waitlisted because of inability to offer FA.
Darn…</p>

<p>Accepted!!!</p>

<p>Yeah waitlisted b/c of FA… What do you guys think of this…? Does this mean we maybe have an option to pay our way in?</p>

<p>Since a lot of people got waitlisted because of “inability to offer FA”, I’m pretty sure your application for FA isn’t the only factor at play. I personally think it’s just a nicer way to word things.</p>

<p>I got accepted as well! Don’t worry about the waitlists guys! You’ll get in elsewhere!</p>

<p>@boardingschoolx I don’t think that is necessarily true - Chimneykid was in this position at at hidden gem last year and AD told me they had “easily 6X more FA applicants that they would like to admit than they had FA to give out.” Very very few families are in a position to be FP candidates these days and FA kids are therefore admitted at much lower percentages than FP kids. Choate is a popular school so it is reasonable to expect that those letters speak the truth. @KlepToMan - the only way that might be possible is if your family can afford tuition without aid. </p>

<p>Congratulations on getting accepted to Choate; My daughter got accepted as well. She got wait listed at Lawrenceville, denied admission at Hotchkiss & Loomis. Best of luck everyone</p>

<p>Accepted for 10th</p>

<p>@prepschoolhopes yep:) I liked Choate but I got accepted to SPS & Milton so i’m going to give up my place on the waitlist.</p>
