Has anyone heard from Beauvoir...

[Anonymous]

DC Pre-K waitlisted. To Beauvoir K acceptances, congrats. Could I ask if you did anything special for your DC application? For example, did you have any current families call or write letters for your DC's file. We would like to apply again next year if our DC is not asked to enroll from waitlist, and any insights for next year would be helpful now while the process is fresh in our memories. We would greatly appreciate any info on your DC's application profile (ie WPPSI scores, etc) that you would feel comfortable sharing.

Good grief, could you possibly be any more pompous?
I can see some poor AD is going to live to regret this.

You should take the offer from GDS, I hear they have that special room for removing sticks from asses. Sounds like that might come in handy for you.

I have to say that it was the nicest w/l letter we've received and actually made me believe a spot could open. We will be attending our first choice school so we will be giving up our spot.

Beauvoir has been a pleasure throughout this whole process.

DC was accepted off a very nicely worded Beauvoir WL letter. We got the call after April 1st. Best of luck to your DC. Hang in there.

maybe this parent is just trying to supply maximum information to help others understand how the process works

Accepted K girl. Had not applied for PK. No connections, good jobs but nothing fancy or extraordinary. Did make last minute first choice call; just left a voicemail. Also attended their voices for learning outside class as a way to show interest.

We applied for pre-k last year and got wait listed. This year we applied for k and was accepted. We were Not expecting the acceptance...pleasantly surprised.

I don't remember the Beauvoir app having any question about parents' education (other than if they had attended Beauvoir). How do parents get that info in to the Admissions Office? I don't know how prior poster could have gotten info to AD from app that both parents attended Ivy grad schools. Am I missing something?

It doesn't, but obviously these morons ensure every living being they meet understand they are in the presence of their greatness by inserting "casually" into conversation.

They send their child essays on that special "Ivy League" letterhead.
