[quote=Anonymous]At our school we often have applicants in your position. The most successful ones make an effort to do a visit in the fall and attend tours/open house then. I would not wait until December because the admissions office will be very busy then though January. Your application will be just one of many from anonymous families who didn’t have the time to do tours or make contact prior to the application time. If you need to do testing, schedule it now. Everyone will be rushing to do it in November/December and it will be too late to get an appointment. Even reaching out by phone or email in September would be a good idea. It’s ok to say you are in the middle of a relocation process- schools are used to this. Don’t say you aren’t sure, though. That’s for after you receive an offer. Position all of your conversations and application materials as if the move is imminent.[/quote]
