[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Accepted!! But will decline if also accepted by DS first choice so still waiting...[/quote]

If your DS's first choice is Gonzaga, conventional wisdom from recent years indicates that he will not be admitted there, due to his interest in GP.[/quote]
GP is second choice, first choice is Groton. DS did not apply to Gonzaga but what you say makes sense.[/quote]

Groton?  Oh, excuse me.  Should he not receive his first choice, will he board at GP?[/quote]
LOL! We are local so he would be day student at GP but of course would board at Groton.[/quote]

I get the impression that the Groton application is an ego-booster rather than a sincere interest in a boarding school.  Were your intentions to board at GP, I'd be more impressed with your interest in Groton.  [/quote]

Not the pp but I hope she doesn't care if you are impressed or not. Looking at a range of hs options makes sense. Some kids change their minds about schools over the course of 8th grade.  They are 13/14 after all.  Boarding at Groton, which is a boarding school, is a lot different than boarding at Prep, which is a day school with a few boarders.  [/quote]
