Knowing that some will think me anal…like they havent already, I created a spread sheet. It was overwhelming, I am not the most organized person, but could not afford a educational consultant.

I didnt want my d to be overwhelmed so I sent the emails out and requested info, maybe 40 schools. I asked her questions regarding what she wanted, from languages to activities, to size. I added on my sheet columns for location (from airports) and FA. I narrowed it down to about 15 and then let my d look at the books. (At this point all schools were realistic in terms of what she wanted). As she made decisions the list got shorter, after visits, list got shorter, some schools added, some dropped.

I felt she should apply to 10, at the end, she filled out for 7 schools. She was selected at 5, wait-listed 1, not selected at 1.

I admit it was the most difficult time since pregnancy. But having a d much like yours, the joy of having her home for thanksgiving and her LOVING her bs, made me say I would do it all again for the happiness and education she has now.

Feel free to PM me if you want more of my sorted story.

Good Luck
