[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6th grade. In at Field. WL at Maret.

Anyone know if Maret is a real waitlist or if they don’t decline anyone? [/quote]

You got into the rising star of the two.  That said if you’re not sure of that, you should go to the admitted student events at both. I think I heard the WL moved at Maret last year, and not at Field, which could reflect some bigger issue that the wider applicant pool is noticing about Maret and a confidence in Field. [/quote]

Pretty sure WL is not invited to admitted student events anywhere. Maybe I misunderstood what you're trying to advise.[/quote]

I apologize- I misspoke. Yes, your child would go to Field’s event, and hopefully they fall in love with the school.  Even if they don't, you probably want to accept the spot, pay the deposit, and if the Maret WL moves, you’d consider forfeiting your deposit at Field.  But from the facilities, to the curriculum, to the philosophy, to the college outcomes/low pressure reputation, I hope you and your child can get excited about Field. Best of luck![/quote]
