[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question for years has been when is a waitlist too long? Some schools have more on the WL than they do seats. Assuming it isn't a Janney situation (only PK4 and no more room), what is the plan?[/quote] It depends. Ultimately, they will not add preschoolers unless they can continue to serve those children (factoring in attrition) through 5th, no matter how long the WL is. Some schools have room to grow and want to grow, so they may motivate to add a room as soon as possible. Not all waitlisters are the same. Siblings and IB are most likely to matriculate. Post lottery OOB adds are the least-- if ther were that interested in the school it would have been one of their 12 lottery picks. So it is not a number, but more of a judgment call.[/quote]
