What schools reject and what only waitlist?

[Anonymous]

I know Landon rejects and heard Maret only waitlists. Others?

It’s helpful because if you get waitlisted, it’s nice to know if it’s a real or not.

There are very few rejections. Most people get waitlisted even though they know you’ll never get in.

Which schools, not what schools.

At our school waitlist means “you can apply again if you want, but no promises” and rejection means “this is not a good fit and we will not accept this student even if you apply again”

Did you have a comprehension issue or you just wanted to be a a$$hole that corrects people's grammar?

Before you get pedantic - I'm a different poster than the one who made the mistake. AND this is a totally rhetorical question aimed at highlighting how annoying posters like you are.

That doesn't seem right. Kids change. A kid who is not the right fit at K might be a great fit come middle school. Usually waitlist is- your kid meets our admission criteria, we just don't have enough spaces for all who applied and others were stronger/better fit than yours. Rejection means even if we have space, your kid isn't the right fit at this time.
