[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school I had ranked #3 going in is now #1 for DS, who has applied for admission to 9th grade. [b]Much of it comes down to whether or not the school offered an in-person open house and/or shadow day. [/b]DS feels little connection or affinity to any school that did not provide the opportunity to go on campus and to spend time with current students.[/quote] +100 Sidwell off list and GDS last for this reason. We forced the GDS application because older sibling had done in person open house and tour several years ago and really felt younger sibling would fit at the school. DC has no connection or excitement for the school though. DC’s top choices are all schools where he has visited several times (in person Q&As, open houses, visits, interviews). I get it. [/quote]
