[quote=Anonymous]I think the bottom line is that it gets harder to get in the longer you wait. If you can afford it and you have your heart set on a particular school, enter in K. If saving $500k is something that would make a difference to you and you can handle the risk, wait for the earliest entry year after K, which for a lot of area privates is 4th. Your kid will get into some private then, even if it’s not where you ultimately want to end up and you can apply out, from a private, in a few years. I’m from here and I am now raising my family here and I honestly don’t know anyone who didn’t have any private school choices when they applied out (even though sometimes the private option they had wasn’t better than their public option). If private is your goal you can make it happen coming out of an upper NW public, it may just take a little more work than entering in K. [/quote]
