[quote=Anonymous]We got waitlisted at all four schools we applied to. I am pretty upset about it, especially when it comes to NCRC, since our playdate there went amazingly well. We are new in town and I can't shake off the feeling that our lack of connections may have played a big role. As many other parents--I'm sure!--we put so much effort into the admission process. We took time off and hired babysitters to go to the open houses; did our research; asked informed questions; we followed up with thank you notes every step of the way; and we made a real effort to remain objective, honest and fair (for example, we expressed enthusiasm to several schools but we only indicated that a school was our first choice to the school that actually would have been our first choice). Not that any of this matters, obviously, but I'm left feeling powerless. I would love to hear from current families. How did you get in? I guess it would help to know if we were just unlucky (lots of siblings, gender considerations etc.), or if the process is not as democratic as they make it appear. Thanks for reading! [/quote]
