Advice from Parents to Prospective Parents on Admissions
Parent #1
The admission process is first come, first serve.
Parent #2
It's open admissions. One just needs to know when to apply, for it fills up quickly.
Parent #3
It is important to apply on time.
Parent #4
I coached my child not to bite others during the 'play' interview.
Parent #5
Just kept on top of it the whole time. It was not easy! There is a high demand for placement and you must get all that paper work in months in advance about 6 months or so and then it takes almost 8 months to find out if you are in! You get what they have to offer you on a first come basis and run like the Dickens with it--grateful that you finally were among the chosen!!! Beansprouts does have a great reputation and they are never pompous or unapproachable. I suspect they are a bit overwhelmed at times with how popular they are.
