[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GU likes the NYC Jesuit schools if my kid's experience is any indication. Also privates in general. Less so publics. GU admissions office is a study in implicit bias; really stuck in the 80s. But that works for your kid if he's coming from either a NYC jesuit school or a known private. [/quote]

DC Jesuit schools do well too. BUT--I don't fault them for supporting the Jesuit mission/education.  They are a Jesuit institution.  The kids share the values.[/quote]

me neither, I was more pointing out the NYC jesuit schools over the world at large. ie a ton more kids from Fordham Prep/Regis than the Chicago or Boston jesuits, etc And yes, the DMV area jesuits. I literally think it's about relationships with individual high schools on some level. Which is very old school[/quote]

Jesuit HS should get a bump. There aren't that many around the US.  Why wouldn't they?  Jesuit HS feed to Jesuit colleges.  They are private institutions.[/quote]
DP. Makes sense to me. However, my older kid attended a Jesuit high school not on the east or west coasts, and while my older kid did not apply, from Naviance it looks like a Georgetown admit seemed particularly tough. Maybe they had more applicants, as a Jesuit school, I don't know. My senior who is applying this year attends a public magnet; we'll see.[/quote]
