Manhattan Parents Seeking Private Schools in Westchester and Fairfield Counties

Manhattan_Parents_Seeking_Westchester_Fairfield_County_Private_Schools

Over the past few months, we have been receiving calls from anxious Manhattan parents who are seeking private schools for their children in Westchester and Lower Fairfield Counties.  Real estate companies, relocation companies and executive assistants have been calling us for admissions advice and placement.  Some wish to temporarily rent and eventually return while others are purchasing homes for permanent residencies and seeking not to return to Manhattan.  A sudden surge in demand for private schools in these areas has resulted and has increased the competition for entrance to these schools.

Dr. Lowe’s Private School Visits:  Other independent educational consultants may depend on telephonic interviews, group speed-meetings in central locations, or simply read literature and review websites and repeat it to families.  I physically visit schools and actively interact with school admissions personnel, senior administrators and students because our offices are located in Lower Fairfield County (Greenwich) and Westchester County (White Plains).  My clients are, therefore, placed in the most appropriate school for their (and their parents’) happiness.  

Simply put, parents who hire me want the BEST admissions results for their children!

Over the last month or so, our New Jersey affiliate: New Jersey Admissions Advisors, has been receiving many emails and calls from parents who reside in New Jersey who are choosing to have their children transfer from public schools and apply to the private high schools in New Jersey.

In New Jersey, the competition to gain admissions to top private high schools is heating up this year – 2024   As more and more parents discover the major challenges in suburban high schools: (a) large class sizes, (b) not much flexibility when it comes to curriculum (c) larger school counselor-student ratio;  they are willing to forgo public school education and pay tuition, which increases the application pool and competition to gain admissions into coveted slots.

Niche, a company that researches and compiles information on schools released its ranking of the best private schools in the U.S., specifically highlighting the best schools that prepare students for elite colleges.  By elite colleges, I am referring to colleges parents already know about: Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Brown, UPenn, Cornell, Dartmouth, Stanford, MIT, Duke, Johns Hopkins and BS/MD programs.

Top US Boarding Schools Dr Paul Lowe Admissions Advisor Educational Consultant

Boarding schools have seen a flurry of new interest from families who view private schools as being better equipped to provide robust instruction, given their financial resources, space and nimbleness in adapting.  As a result of this interest, the competition for coveted spots have increased. The reason is: PRESTIGE!

Earlier this year, many students who applied to top boarding schools, including Exeter, Andover, St. Paul’s and Choate were place on waitlists and were eventually notified that they could not gain entrance for the current year. In a letter to families, one boarding school stated in April, 2022: “At this time, it is clear that we will be unable to admit students from our waiting list in the near future as we anticipate being overenrolled….followed by another note in August 2022: “…we remain fully enrolled and as such, will be unable to offer admission to any students from our waiting list. I am sorry not to have better news for you and on behalf of all of my colleagues here in the admission office”.

It’s important for parents to hire an expert who understands how to successfully navigate the boarding school admissions process! After all, parents prefer their children to be accepted rather than rejected or placed on a waitlist.
