The W schools have superior college results than AHC. With less bullying too.

No HC is not really that impressive at all. Same as last year so far. Yes, one to Georgetown and a couple to UVA. Not one top 20 school. Not one early admit to Notre Dame. This is a Catholic school. I never see any admits to ND or BC from this school, even with all of its wealth and likely legacies. Why is that? Looking at SR and VISI, lots of admits to ND every year. Two already posted for VISI and one for SR this year.

Well people weren’t asking about SR or Visi, were they? Visi is not doing well at all this year compared to last year. Bitter pill I suppose. ED? There are no early decision Boston College admits? Since when does that determine a great school? Regular decision hasn’t even come out yet. Everyone knows that the weaker candidates apply ED anyway. Prep didn’t get one Boston College ED so they are terrible school? Stop being so jealous.

LOL, jealous of what? My daughter already graduated and is attending a top 20 university.

As for BC, I am not sure what point you are trying to make. HC didn't have any early BC admits either. VISI had two for ND. SR had one ND and one BC. I would not consider HC a better school than AHC. It is on par academically. It just has a wealthier student population.

Everyone knows that AHC is at the bottom for academics of all girls schools. Everyone. Not to say that they can’t get a top 20 every now and then outside of sports and hooks. I think they had one last year. And if wealth were the determining factor, everyone at Bullis would be going to a top 20 and they aren’t. They have good matriculation, but hardly what you would expect from such ostentatious as wealth -same with Georgetown Prep. Try again…

This. Admissions right now is a jungle. Any private high school that is consistently getting their kids into solid competitive schools deserves credit. Bullis isn’t doing that. Holy Child is doing that consistently.

Where are you getting your information? I just looked at both school provided matriculation lists. HC had one student out of the entire class matriculate to a top 20 school. Bullis had 16 or over 12% of their class do so with schools including Harvard, Stanford, MIT, Princeton, and other ivies. Take a look for yourself.

What? You can't be serious. And I am not a Bullis parent.

Very good points. We are parents of an 8th grader and explored Holy Child. I will say that there was standing room only at their Open House and we know of two girls last year who were accepted at Holton and still chose Holy Child. So clearly there are parents who find great value in attending this school.

And I think their admissions are quite good actually. I’m not overly impressed with the college admissions for any of the girls schools. A few at some of the other schools will get into Ivy schools but overwhelmingly, most will not. The question is, where do the rest go? Holy Child has quite a few who go to UVA, Tulane and Wake Forest which are the EXACT same colleges the other schools are sending their girls too. 🤷🏻‍♀️

If you need financial aid, you probably have a better chance with AHC. HC does not offer much aid.

To what degree can the college differences be attributed to wealth rather than academics? It stands to reason that if the students at HC are on average from much wealthier families, cost and the need for financial aid may weigh less heavily on where they choose to apply and ultimately enroll than AHC students.

I think it has a lot to do with it.

These schools are not alike.

HC definitely reads as wealthier. I’m not sure about how the academics among regular ed students and college admissions compare though that would be helpful. There is also about a 10k price difference.
