This is great but not what the thread was asking for. Not sure why you felt the need to post?

I was surprised they didn’t send out a post-admissions survey. I wanted to share feedback [/quote]

We also had a terrible experience with WIS lower school admissions

Bad experience at SSFS for MS admissions. Luckily the head of MS is leaving. He has flown under everyone's radar simply because he remained during years of turmoil but he was completely ineffective and some of that proof is the fact that MS did NOT weather the stormy years well in terms of MS staff and student departures.

Sheridan is super!

Bad experience with Potomac for K

I think that is just them, as that was exactly how we felt and our DS was admitted. Not a good admissions experience and part of the reason we chose to go elsewhere

Had a horrible experience with middle school admissions at Flint Hill. They were so rude, I could not believe it.

Middle school was rude? Jordi was really good for us and we also talked to Rico, who was very helpful with some of our questions about extracurriculars.

GDS seemed uninterested. We should have noted, as our DS was waitlisted.

Bullis was pretty bad as well. I think they’re all overwhelmed but it comes across as “we could care less whether your kid comes here”

I think Field was overwhelmed with the amount of applicants they had this year. The admissions "office" is like 2 people. When we applied the year before they were very responsive.

We had a good experience with Flint Hill for one middle school kid and one upper school kid. Which school did you apply to?

We had LS experiences and they were great!

I’d be curious to understand what the complaints were - if they were very specific/unique because I can’t imagine having a negative experience from what we went through..

We loved the US admissions at SSSAS. No experience with the other two divisions, though.

We loved US and MS.

Here’s an idea, you could’ve just chosen not to reply instead of being rude and hoping to stir things up. Idiot.

Why are you even replying in a snarky way to someone’s question. You’re really just here to turn up the drama. If you don’t have a response, just don’t reply. Weirdo.
