GDS


What's the max number of applications allowed at GDS? Did they increase it this year due to Covid? Why did they limit the number? Who give them the right to limit?


10. No. Presumably to keep the experience within reasonable bounds for students and staff. Schools have many rules; this is just one of them.

10 is enough IMO.


10 is not enough this year due to covid. Any private schools cap the number is so stupid!

Did your DD apply to ED1?


This makes you kind of easy to identify, no?


Ok. Your point? Who am I? LOL...


People at your school may find you obnoxious. I didn’t realize your daughter applied to 22 schools!


Surprised Holton allows 22 applications


I don't think they do.

Congrats on all those acceptances. But i hope that your DC notifies the schools that knows she won't be attending asap in order to open up spots for others.

Yes, because other big cities ... DC, NYC, Chicago, Atlanta, LA, have it nailed. Great point, useful comment.


Masshole alert.


I have black friends who moved from Boston to each of those cities because of the racism in Boston. Racism is bad everywhere but somehow harder to live with in Boston according to many friends.
