What does it mean if my child is waitpooled or denied admission?
Decisions to admit, waitpool or deny applicants are heavily dependent on the pool of students applying. Our primary goal is to admit students we feel will be successful at our school. In making these decisions we consider a variety of factors such as academic ability, attitude, character, talents, interests in both academic and non-academic areas, and most importantly, the desire of the student and family to be at our school and to support our mission. We also have to take into consideration the personality and academic makeup of the current class and gender balance. We do not maintain a waitlist but rather we maintain a waitpool. If an opening occurs, we will carefully look at the current class makeup and determine what student from the waitpool will bring the best balance to that given class. Because openings can occur suddenly, acceptances can be made up until the first day of school in late August.
