43

If anybody is Updating the chart with changes can you format it like this:

Update: Name of School

The change......blah...blah....

So like @MaxLMZ 's update would be:

I’ll make a new chart with the updates in April for next year applicants…

Thanks.

Yes, I’m awaiting to hear from two other schools. Cranbrook was the only boarding school I applied to, the others are day school only. I’m pretty sure the low SSAT scores ruined my chances. I applied for the top 3 local prep schools, only options left would be religious private schools. I also applied for two free IB schools, one I am on the waitlist, haven’t heard from the other IB yet. My local public school also has an IB program, but they don’t offer the middle years program.

52

Update: Andover

53

Does anyone know what time the Andover package might come if you live within a hour of PA? During school?

54

I believe the packages are sent for morning delivery, so it’s likely during school hours. My kid decided to wait until after school to find out if a package had come.

55

what about roxbury latin?

56

Fenn school decisions will be emailed 3/10. No time stated.

57

Question: Do all schools send packages for delivery on March 10 in addition to email or portal info? Do all schools send email In advance? Is “no news” good news, or is “no news” bad news?

58

@letsgopa I live within an hour of PA (actually live in the town). My friends who got into PA last year had their FedEx packages come after the 5pm Gateway decision (and they live in town too)

Hang in there@lovinglife!!
