[quote=Anonymous]For some applicants the acceptance rate at STA or Sidwell will always be 100%. This is true of any highly sought after private. You know, the Obamas came to town in Sept/ Oct '08 to look at a few short list schools. Does anyone seriously think they needed to sweat it out like the rest of us. Same with kids of POTUS Chief of Staff- got right in at Maret post election when normally that would have been a closed window. And if your kid is very bright and a serious athletic talent very likely almost any DC Private would offer them a spot. For the rest of the very wealthy and connected law partner, etc.. might have to sweat out the 50/50 odds ( maybe 70/30) For the average Fed employee who needs FA but has a really smart kid- now you are talking the 1.7 % admit rates you see quoted here.
