[quote=Anonymous]I think it's relationship-based in some regions, especially schools like Dartmouth. Admissions can't take every exceptionally qualified private school kid in Fairfax County, VA or Bergen County, NJ. They have a few go-to schools where a favored alum/donor/whoever went, there's some shared history or lineage there, and unfortunately that checks the box for the region. The other schools aren't on a blacklist, there just aren't enough spots for their kids because a different school (or schools) is preferred. [/quote]
