<p>Hey everyone! I know its application time for the boarding school classes of 2016/2017/2018! I am a recent alumnus and I wanted to answer questions you all have about the admissions process with boarding school and Suffield Academy in general!</p>
My son is currently wait-listed at Suffield. He would like to transfer in as a re-classified junior, but we’ve been told it was a very competitive year and his application was not as strong as the other juniors. He is looking to go there for a particular sport and the coach wants him, but the admissions committee apparently told him he likely wouldn’t get in (and we are not seeking financial aid btw). Any advice on how to push him over the wait-list hump?
MODERATOR’S NOTE: The original poster has not been online in over a year. You are unlikely to get an answer here. You’re better so posing a new question. Based upon the question, you should post in the parents forum. Closing.
