[quote=Anonymous]I think the application asks if there are any siblings / connections to any of the Cathedral schools, but whether that has any bearing I'm not sure. I don't think it is an automatic by any stretch. In fact some teachers have had their kids turned down for STA admission. My kids transitioned earlier than 9th grade, so I don't have BTDT experience, but I did speak with a 9th grader who moved to St. Albans from a Bethesda area public school once about his transition, He said he really liked STA and made some friends quickly, but that the academics and homework were on "another level entirely" from what he was doing before and it took him a bit to adjust.
