[quote=Anonymous]Any good private will have competitive admissions. That said, if your DC attend a private down-under, then a recommendation letter from the current (Australian) Head of School to HoS at your first-choice US private will help admissions chances. Being from outside the US also is an admissions advantage, because it brings geographic diversity to the US school. Applying for both children to the same private school also will help improve admissions chances because it shows commitment to that private school. The public schools (meaning government-run) are required to take any student, and school assignment usually will be based on your home address (exception is for a magnet school program, which is not guaranteed and might not be the assigned neighborhood school).[/quote]
