Penguinboysmum Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Sadly DS had a no letter for Elmhurst. He's upset at the moment but has already said he'll keep trying. We've told him it's just not his time yet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations to everyone else and back to associates for her. If she's 19th out of 62, that's quite near the top, as I'm guessing numbers 1-14 have the awards? I hope she's ok xx 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lspendl828 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 My DD got a yes for Elmhurst (Year 7). She's over the moon and I'm so proud of her but I'm feeling a bit over-whelmed by it all right now.

It couldn’t get through an d then got a message they close at 4:30 (it was 2pm haha), try again tomorrow. Don’t really want to ask where my DD is on the list as it says not to in the letter?

Just had a chat with the school and they told me where she was on the list. Am very proud as she's much higher up than I thought she'd be! They've offered us a bursary so she'll be there in September whatever happens. Good luck to everyone still waiting! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t going to ask them as it said not to on the letter, but everyone seems too know where their DD or DS are, so will try and find out tomorrow.

I would email if you can't get through. It was discussed where DD was on the reserve list when I called, as I suppose if she had been VERY near the top, there would be no need to offer her a bursary right away, if that makes sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

margarite Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Just seen on FB that a child who was at funding for Hammond and DD thought was a dead cert for MDS has been given a place at Elmhurst. So there might be another award up for grabs ... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought that the total finalists being at 62, then the awards say 1-14 (example I don’t know how many MDS awards there are), then continuing with the numbering in order of scores, so 19th I would assume is high up the list, but I don’t know for sure. Did she mean 4th in order of the reserve list in the sense that if there were 14 awards given out then number 18 on the list would technically be number 4 reserve? Fingers crossed for you. I’m dying to know where my DD is now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollyLou Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 @Seaside H they volunteered the information to me too. There was definiely 62 being considered for funding as my dd and her friend both came out after recall and said that' how many were on the list; it had been said during the audition. It is all so confusing. They told me willingly where my dd was on the list today but then told my friend they won't tell you? She has no idea where her dc is on the list or even if school are offering any bursary. @margarite if it's the same child I think it is she was also offered MDS for Hammond. She's taking the MDS for Elmhurst so somene is in for good news from hammond. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's a lot of money still but I'm going to try and see if I can raise the remaining funds. My dd has worked with a professional dance company recently and they said they'd help too. So for us still a little bit in limbo. My dd knows it's not guaranteed just yet but We'll give it our best shot. Where was your DD if you don’t mind me asking?

Seaside H Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 So I have just been told your number out of 62 denotes the reserve list. Pupils with MDS aren’t included so 19 is not achievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
