[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brand new to this process just learning about it for my kids, elementary school age. Want to apply for 14-15, and don't know how to go about it- do I schedule a visit first? And do that, then submit application?  Or submit application early, but knowing the teacher recs won't come in until later once they know my child? Do wait to submit application until I have it all done, and all Recs are ready to be sent in?  This is all new to me and I have no friends in the process so m hoping someone could help me out.  Thanks. [/quote]Some schools require an application before an interview and some times they are coupled with a personalized tour.  The personalized tour fills up fast.  I wouldn't say you need to be aggressive but many parents go ahead and pay the application fee just to get the process moving early.  However, do what works best for you.  See below a description from one private school.

[i][b]Upon receipt of Part I of the application,[/b] a member of the Admissions office will call to schedule an interview for the applicant with one of the admissions committee members.  This interview is a required component of the application process.  A personalized tour with a current "name of school" student will also be offered at this same time.  These visits are during the school day between late September and the first of February. [/i][/quote]
