Unfortunately, yes. It seems to me they send out acceptances first, waitlists second, and rejections last. ...based on my experience.

This is cruel.

but true....

It all stems for the way the Admission Office is run there. It apes the personality of the person in charge.

I would have to disagree- we had heard the process was a bit disconnected there but found the opposite to be true. Met with and had nice conversations with Charlotte, and other parts of the team- we are not any sort of connected family.

You just started there, so you have no context. The reputation of that office is well deserved, and the coldness is extended to many families after matriculation.

[quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know anything about Potomac's sibling policy? Is there a stated preference or do we have to go through all of this nonsense again in a couple of years?

Yes, you need to go through the application process for siblings. We are aware of quite a few siblings that have not be offered admission.[/quote]

I believe that siblings do their visits on a different day and are notified earlier than the general applicants. All of the families I know have gotten siblings in but I don't believe the siblings were as strong of candidates.
