[quote=Anonymous]I don't think it has anything to do with embarrassment about where students are ending up. It's not like that ends up being a secret. My DD went to NCS. She had a small class of approximately 70 girls and, obviously, everyone (students and many parents) knew everyone. If/when students or parents talked about college applications, it pretty quickly became something the rest of the class knew about. Not everyone wanted their classmates following along as decisions came out. For my DD, it was easier to process deferrals, rejections, and acceptances privately. As parents, we simply followed her lead as it was her information to share or not share. At the end of the day of course, everyone knew where everyone else was going because it's a tiny group of kids. [/quote]
