But no, they don’t have to.

And no one cares. I don't give a rat's @ss who they give FA to nor to who they don't let in. It's not my decision to make.

You don’t. Others do.

I’d like to know how much you make per year, how you’re invested and how often you beat your kids. Is that enough for you to tell me then?

What are you trying to prove OP? Are you salivating to be apart of this list.

But see, you are only asking for what you want and not stating that everyone wants that information.

Why do you want that information?

nDO YOU REALLY THINK SO?

Would be curious to see number of seats that go to siblings & legacies vs 'at large' applicants. Also what average admit looks like in 'at large' vs 'hooked' group.

$1M, crypto, daily. Happy?

It’s not bad idea. At least to have the criteria disclosed. Is race used as one of the criterion? Then that should be illegal.

Maret should be on this list instead of Gtown Prep but otherwise the list is accurate. It’s exactly what the majority of the people in the elite private school world think even if they don’t say it out loud.

And BASIS isn’t even adjacent to the conversation much less in it, so no.

Also, it it would be curious to have data to see how great full pay students are kept out. The admission staff needs to change. you know what you know. I have see bullies accpeted at this school.

OP, you haven't thought this through. If the independent schools publish this info, then there would be a competition among the schools to see who could have the lowest admissions rate, because parents would naturally strive for the most selective schools. If they publish yield, then schools would want to protect their yield by rejecting more students. It would results in all the craziness of the USNews rankings fever. This is not in anybody's interest. The process is already difficult enough without an additional layer of crazy on top.
