I did.

I have never had a school ask to know all schools where kid was admitted. I have had school ask where child will be attending and have always been honest.

I wouldn't offer info unless asked.

Every school we declined last year asked where our kid accepted. They just want to know.

+1. They need as much data as they can to predict the best yield for future admissions cycles and I think it's only fair to let them know. They spend a lot of time considering your child's application.

Most of the schools we denied asked which caught me by surprise. Definitely wasn't expecting that question.

We did and were willing to share the reasons, which were well understood and received.

As a former admission officer, it would be great to let a school know where your child is going when you turn them down. No hard feelings - but it is helpful for reporting and understanding the current landscape. We appreciate that many things go into a decision, so please do share where you decide to enroll!

They have the information if the other schools are part of the application portal. They even share submitted grades among the schools. Nothing is secret!

Why wouldn't you? They know your child has declined their school and they're just interested to know.

Pp-why would I or why should I? It is simply not their business.
