[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]if you can pay the full tuition, you'll get it.  every school is looking for full pay families and don't think beauvoir is more exclusive than that.  if you can pay, your kid will get in.[/quote]
Imagine thinking that being full-pay, without more, is enough to get into the most selective private schools around here.[/quote]

Agreed. You need connections, hooks. [/quote]

No, actually, you don't. As these selective schools creep up in price, and DCPS gets better and more acceptable to a broader spectrum of families, all of these schools - particularly at the elementary level -  are becoming more, shall we say, "welcoming," to those who can pay full freight.[/quote]

That’s the opposite of what I’m hearing from those well connected in the top schools and admissions staff. It’s been getting more and more competitive the past 3 years. Full pay, sibling and other connections are not what they used to be. Seems like top schools get their pick from the best of the best (whatever they perceive that to be).[/quote]

Yes, the very best five-year-olds.  With affluent, connected families. [/quote]
