Your child was in private so you could have still enrolled and then withdrew when school started.

You're unfamiliar with the process? You get a notification with the word DEADLINE and you think it's fungible? That's on you.

+1. What's the mystery in the process of responding by a deadline???


I'm calling troll for the first time on DCUM. OP asks about whether an expired deadline from 6 weeks ago is something she could worry about, and whether she can enroll at two schools at once. Really?

OP, I hope you aren't really surprised by this. You are one month late. Just because your circumstances changed, it doesn't mean that they can re-open the slot for you. The registration pending was clearly just a delay in information updating. You had a known expiration date.


OP here. I'm not surprised, but I don't understand why the attitude in your response. I am unfamiliar with the process and came here with a simple question for the masses.


I hope your children do not get in. It would be unfair to all the others who have been patiently waiting and willing to respond. You are over a month late.


I totally agree. A whole month!!
