[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, when we looked at Sidwell it wasn't our first choice.  We saw it on a rainy day and the admissions process was not as warm or welcoming as others.  However, we accepted the offer based on the recommendation of another school's admissions director.  It's was totally different as an insider family.  I can't say enough about how happy the years have been for our family.  You really can't judge a school by the admissions staff or how beautiful or not the campus.  It's the faculty and the families in your year that count.  The families are a roll of the dice but the faculty isn't.  Think hard about your priorities.[/quote]

Wait... Another school's admissions director advised you? as in another school you were considering? Or someone you knew independently? The first scenario seems so strange. [/quote]

I read it as they were encouraged by the admissions counselor at the school they were leaving[/quote]
