This is a cycle we go through every few years. Raise the equity flag where selection is based on pure merit, change composition to admit/recruit based on ethnicity, run the institution/company to the ground, clean house, rehire based on pure merit. Repeat cycle. |

| When did the first round of waitlist acceptances start getting sent out last year? |

There isn't a first or subsequent rounds as such, they are rolling offers, as and when they become available along the way until August school start. Typically, after an offer is declined, the next ranked waitlisted applicant is extended the offer within one to two business days. They are given about two to three business days to accept or decline the offer. If the offer is sent out during summer break, they may receive a few more days to respond. There was someone on this thread who mentioned being on a long vacation and not being able to check email; not sure how they got their situation resolved. |

| Nothing from AOS but some parents at out school and a nearby school received admissions e-mails from TJ. The one kid I thought was a lock received nothing. |

I thought TJ results won't be out until mid to late April. Can we confirm if TJ results are out for all? |

I received the below response when I contacted the Admissions office today -
Thank you for contacting the Office of Admissions & Outreach. The waitlist process is ongoing and will continue through the first day of school in the fall. (SY 2024-2025). Students will be offered admissions from the waitlist as seats become available. It is impossible to predict how many students will be admitted from the waitlist. We will offer a number of seats from the waitlist, but not all on the waitlist will be offered admission. |

My DD got off the waitlist today!! From the looks of it, that means her test score was one of the top-ranked from her school. Here's the email she got: Congratulations! You are being offered admission to attend the Academies of Loudoun as a member of the Academy of Science (AOS) program for the 2024 school year. Your history of hard work, passion for STEM education, and remarkable accomplishments demonstrate that you have the energy, dedication, and talent to flourish at the Academies of Loudoun. I hope you accept this offer. Students like you are the core of the exciting learning that happens at the Academies of Loudoun and contributes to the dynamics and innovative thinking that is characterized by our school. As you consider your options for next year, please follow the instructions below to accept or decline this offer no later than 12:00 PM Friday, April 5, 2024. Offers not accepted or declined within the allotted time will be rescinded. |

Congratulations! Everyone on waitlist are the best from their school, but there is a ranking order. It is unlikely the ranking order is based solely on their test score. Selection committee has access to everything on student profile, including course history, grade reports, SOL scores, reading/math assessment history for all grades, etc... everything you see in parentvue/studentvue. The detailed criteria they use, and how comprehensive it is beyond the test, is not disclosed. Equity & diversity plays a significant role. We received the exact same email, word for word, so they probably use the same template for sending out an offer. |
