Why begin the search and application process now?
- Even if classes are not meeting, many admissions departments are functioning and working with families.
- Much of the search and application process can be done at a distance
- Given current school disruptions, it may take more time to procure children’s transcripts and teacher recommendations, so it would be wise to begin making requests now.
- Delaying applications may mean more competition and stress when assignments are “re-activated” later, especially if the supply of schools is reduced by some closing permanently.
- In various parts of the world, schools are beginning to reopen, so demand for upcoming school year will likely resume.
