[quote=Anonymous]Sorry to hear OP. The process is very, very stressful. My kid was WL everywhere including second + third tier schools. My dh worked with a wonderful woman who was a Holton Alum. We are not sure, but we think the fact that the woman wrote a letter + called... may have tipped the scales for DD. Kid ended up at HYP (if I said which- you could ID her - so I won't). If you have any alum contacts at your choice schools-- reach out + ask for help. Also, have child's favorite teacher +/or principal call. This is DC-- now is the time to lobby (in a respectful + non-annoying way). Good luck to you. Holton was so great for my kid-- due to its programs, my kid became the first Ivy kid in my very large + extended family. Only in America![/quote]
