[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dear all,

I am reaching out to the families who have attended Beauvoir and then graduated somewhere else other than NCS/STA. Could you please describe your experiences? Did the outplacement team advise you to look at other options or was it your own initiative and choice? Did your child have strong views on whether they wanted to be in NCS/STA or some other school by third grade (e.g. because of friends)? Finally, where did you end up (if possible) and did you feel that the school did a good job preparing your kid for that place?

We understand that admissions to NCS/STA is very competitive and not automatically guaranteed to Beauvoir students. At the same time, this still seems to be path most graduates take and it would be worthwhile to talk a bit about other experiences and see what other options are available and how easy they were.

Thank you for sharing![/quote]

I dig out the old post because I have been wondering about this. Given 80% of the Beauvoir students automatically enroll in NCS/St. Alban, how do they compare with the students who enroll later? Do they screen students at least for some degree out of Beauvoir? Thus, NCS/St. Alban actually do not actually starts in 4th grade but like the other Big 3, starting in Prek.

Beauvoir students are not automatically enrolled in STA/NCS. They have to apply. They have a leg up in admissions, but they still apply.  [/quote]

How does that work? Is it the exact same process as someone applying to 4th from the outside? [/quote]

No -- they have a special early admissions process and they find out in December (I think? Maybe January). It is not the general pool application process. [/quote]
