Admissible vS Admitted

🚀Now What? Outcomes & Decisions🚀

Waiting on indy school decisions? Then this long-ish post with 🥰, from RIISE is for you!

As decisions land in your inbox, reframe outcomes by keeping in mind that your scholar/family may have done everything right ‘admissible’ and still not get ‘admitted’. Then there’s the WAITLIST (more on working the ‘WL’ in upcoming posts)

📣We are holding space for all applicants to receive desired enrollment offers - a special nod to our RIISE Doer Families!

The reality is that ‘ALL’ won’t,
and you should be prepared to manifest DIVINE outcomes, which may or may not reflect current hopes, but are in universal alignment hashtag#iykyk .

Whatever you do don’t internalize the outcome-even if ‘you get in’. Trust me, the real work begins with navigating, negotiating, and leveraging indy school culture 😜(more on enrolling vs belonging in upcoming posts)!

There are way too many nuances w/the admission process to take non-admitted outcomes to ♥️ :
✍🏾competitive landscape
🍏available seats
🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒siblings and legacies
💰financial aid budgets
💫stars in alignment

Be mindful to:
1. trust the process,
2. reassess,
3. strongly consider reapplying -after doing #2!
4. give yourself/scholar 🅰️ for showing-up

Speaking of number two, it always stinks. The application process is intense and competition is stiff. Ask the right ❓(s) to glean what needs to look different if you choose to reapply.

Future forward: if you are a family with young children start preparing them for academic, social, emotional success as early as possible -think first teacher. It becomes more competitive the older our young scholars get.
If I had a 💶 for every time I’ve heard ‘I wish I would have applied sooner…

No matter the outcome: public, private, charter, home school, or independent, we hope YOUR decision as a parent or caregiver is to be THAT common denominator in developing curious and resilient children and empowered parent-school partnerships! It matters.
