[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i mean which one is most selective?[/quote]

I don't know if it speaks to selectivity but we applied to all three for PreK. Results: admitted to Beauvoir, WL at GDS and not admitted to Sidwell. For what it's worth, we needed a generous FA package for it to be doable. Beauvoir's award met our need. I do wonder if we were full pay if out results at GDS and Sidwell would have been different. Of course, I have no way of knowing.

Going into the process I did feel like we had better odds at Beauvoir because of the number of children they admit. When you consider 20 spots and some will be filled by siblings, legacies, children of staff and faculty that does make it harder for those of us with no hooks. I would imagine with even those same spots being claimed it still leaves a decent number of spots for those with no hooks. The good thing, I think all three are excellent schools and anyone admitted to any of the three is fortunate. I know of a few who weren't admitted to any of the three, so I do think they are all selective. [/quote]
