[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess you tell your daughter it's not happening this year. Do it next year and plan accordingly so deadlines aren't missed.[/quote]

This. Sorry op, that’s just bad planning and bad communication. Did you renew contact without really talking to your dd?

Your only option at this stage is to appeal to the school’s good will. [b]They could probably accommodate, [/b]but they are probably annoyed that you didn’t notify them with all the time you had between renewing contract; which happens before new students are even notified, so sometime early February to 4 days after end of May deadline. It would have been one thing if it was a force majeure but your child suddenly changing her mind is not.

This is VERY unlikely.  School's need this $ and they need security in their admissions and budgeting process. If they start caving, they lose this. This is why contracts are sent in Feb and why there are deadlines in June.  Schools coordinate on these deadlines to accommodate for admissions WL decisions.[/quote]
