[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question from someone who hasn't a clue on how this works. Is the connection between DC privates and NY privates so tight that a privileged person in OP's position can just have the headmistress make a few calls and, just like that, OP's kid skips the line so to speak and easily lands into a top DC private? [/quote] yes, perhaps. If there are spots and if there aren't greater needs at the school. I.e. a VIP's kid or a basketball center will trump OP's kid. A school also isn't going to add kids if they're already overenrolled. [/quote] But aren't they all enrolled to capacity and with waitlists? [/quote] Waitlists don't count.[/quote]
