[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do the parents at Sidwellz know who is applying where?[/quote]

Thank you for calling out my typo ;). Shouldn’t reply on phone.

Short answer of how kids know who applies where: they attend [b]the info session[/b] and talk.  But I don’t think this is a foolproof strategy and may miss some applicants.[/quote]

What info sessions are you talking about?[/quote]

The info session where college AO visits school.  Generally, kids interested enough to apply early attend those sessions.  And, kids talk to each other then (though could definitely be an absent student or someone holding cards close, hence not a foolproof strategy).[/quote]

A student may attend many college visits.  How do you know which college he will apply ED?  Kids only talk with their friends about colleges, right?  Are kids broadcast what college they will apply?[/quote]

Agree with this 100%. At small private schools everyone knows what the top schools/ED the kids are targeting - especially if there is a legacy or recruited athlete element. Safeties may be less known.

Like I said, may not be completely reliable but when the school is small (75 kids/class) and kids talk, they share a lot of info.  Would imagine very different at larger schools.[/quote][/quote]
