[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It probably changes each year depending on how many siblings are actually applying? Ask during tours and interviews at each school.[/quote] Can someone share successful stories of non sibling non VIP get in? Every tour we went there are people who already have kids in upper grades. Makes me feel a school like Sidwell or gds can fill their spots with just siblings two times over. [/quote] Our kid at GDS would be one, and there are others in their class starting in 6th who are non-VIP/non-sibling. But it's unlikely, given how much the 6th grade class expands and the need to not exceed the overall cap, that the school accepts more than 18-20 kids total for 6th grade, with the expectation (prayers, actually) that not all 18-20 enroll. Because if they all did, that would be a problem for the school. So it's a numbers game no matter what. [/quote]
