[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am very curious what school this is because schools shouldn't be "pushing" kids to schools they don't want to go to.[/quote] True story: our school pushed a close friend’s DC to EA Princeton. He wanted Yale. They are an FA family with another DC in lower grade so the parents didn’t want to piss off the school. The boy ended up loving Princeton. [/quote] I wish my kid had these problems - slumming it to Princeton instead of Yale.[/quote] The family thought Princeton would be too white and preppy. He ended up being glad he went. Perhaps the counsellor knew there were already connected kids/legacy applying to Yale, or maybe they genuinely thought Princeton would be a better fit.[/quote]
