[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any idea when waitlist will start to move. I understand the whole acceptance to yielding numbers thing. But every year kids get off the waitlist, so just curious when to expect movement if there is any??[/quote] It’s usually after deposits are due because then the school has a clear sense of its yield. When my DS was offered a spot from the waitlist a few years ago, they let us know within hours of when deposits were due. [/quote] We were in the same camp. It was brutal though. DS was accepted at Sidwell but waitlisted at GDS. Put a deposit down at Sidwell. Got a call the day after with an offer to move off the WL at GDS. GDS was our first choice and we took the spot but had to forfeit the Sidwell deposit. It was a tough call. [/quote]
