[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sidwell kids can only apply to nine schools -- usually a range of reach to safety like everywhere else. There have been kids who did not get in to one of their nine choices. Of course the admissions office called around to other schools later and eventually got them in somewhere, but a true safety is a school that takes 100% not everyone defines safety that way.[/quote] Then that reflects badly on the college guidance system. A school doesn't have to admit 100% of applicants in order for it to be a pretty sure thing for a particular applicant. I think we all know a safety isn't defined as a school with 100% acceptance. At DC's school, the only kids who don't get in anywhere are those who, like PP, feel they are entitled to go to a top school and aren't realistic with their applications. [/quote]
