[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went through the application process for middle school and my DC was waitlisted or rejected by the schools she applied to. On paper, she seemed to be a strong candidate, but we asked for financial aid. I'm wondering if this worked against us, given the increase in applications over the last 2 years. We may apply again next year, but wonder if it's a non-starter if we need FA (not 100 percent, but probably about 50 percent). If you were accepted to middle school for the fall, were you offered financial aid and if so, did it cover what you need? If you've been through this process in the past, is it easier or harder to get FA in high school since it's only a 4-year commitment versus 6 or 7 years for a middle schooler? [/quote] The 50% need could be the problem. They could take two 25% kids or three kids with lower percentage FA needs.[/quote]
