[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not easy to reverse.  You have to either go through the admissions process again or put your child in a public school that may be far less than ideal.  You have to pull your child out of a place s/he's gotten to know and away from his/her friends.  You have to deal with the fact that you just spent $30K per year on something you feel wasn't worth the price.

I'm guessing that those of you calling OP crazy or telling her to relax haven't been though the admissions process recently.  [/quote]

And how do you know, this would not happen in your first choice, to-die-for-school? There is no need to stress over K - it will be all right no matter which private school you end up in. [/quote]

Second PP is absolutely right -- it can and does happen with first-choice schools.  There is no pure play here, so don't sweat it.  And, while I haven't gone through the private school admissons process in some time, I have gone through the college admissions process 2X in the past 5 years with one more to go.  From that perspective, I can tell you that if you're this stressed out over kindergarten, you're heading into a world of train wreck craziness in 12 years.  And if that doesn't help, check out the "suck it Maret" poster on the "what does a letter from the Big 3 look life?" thread.  At the very least, it'll give you a good laugh.       [/quote]
