Beadancer Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 I’m seeking advice please: my daughter has been put on the waiting list for an MDS at Tring for year 7 ballet and been offered a place at another reputable school. We are thrilled with her outcome and know that she’s been very lucky. Our preference is for Tring, it’s a bit of a gut instinct thing and I wondered if anyone had any experience of having been moved from waiting list to actually getting an MDS at Tring or knew how many waiting list places were offered? Are we being at all realistic to hope that a place might become available? Or is this just a stock response to those who’ve auditioned for a scholarship? TIA.

KeenButClueless Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 (edited) Hi @Beadancer, I know that at least two girls were offered places from the MDS waiting list last year. Good luck! Edit: I should have said that was for year 7 entry specifically. Edited March 30, 2021 by KeenButClueless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Clue Dance Mum Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Has anyone on waitlist been offered anything? Just wondering if there was any movement with people taking other offers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlwaysBallet Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Might be best to phone the school and ask. It is wonderful school with an amazing faculty. My daughter has been there for four years and I guarantee it is worth the wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MumToTu Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Does anyone know if Tring ever offer MDS for 6th form late on my dd was offered a Dada a while back this year, but we sadly had to decline as just over the £90k thread this year as an exception ? She is wanting to do 3 /4 as very academic A levels, but we can’t reach the full fees - would if we could - Tring looks outstanding! She has also had to turn down the degree offers as she had as no A level option sadly as she loved Central - very annoying for her xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meadowblythe Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Huge congratulations to your DS Bunny! Decisions to make now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beadancer Posted June 23, 2021 Author Share Posted June 23, 2021 We rang to find out where our daughter was on the wait list and the school were very helpful, so if people are waiting, it might be worth a call. We’ve accepted a place elsewhere now and are happy with that decision, but Tring were helpful in our getting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine girl Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 Could anyone offer any advice on how long it takes to hear whether the Dada offer is granted or rejected once you have submitted all the paperwork, thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
