Can you apply for both? Do they ever waitlist for day and offer a spot for boarding as an alternative?

It’s at the top of my daughter’s list to apply for fall 2025 so we are just starting to research.

Madeira is a wonderful school. I wish all girls could have the Madeira experience.

Looking back, I could NOT be happier with where she ended up instead, and she would say the same. I think my lucky stars she didn't get in to Madeira. It wouldn't have been the right place for her.


What makes you say this? I am genuinely curious.


Curious here too. If Madeira wouldn't be right why apply? Not being snarky here. As with PP genuinely curious

Can I ask where she ended up? My daughter was accepted to Bullis, Field and St. Andrew's.

My daughter got rejected (well, put in the wait pool) for 10th. It was her #1 choice and she's devastated.
