Got CO letter from SOTA today. Came in a small envelop although we were looking out for a big one based on past threads on ksp. All the best to other parents/students who've applied to SOTA.
LOL - so far all the COs we've received from different schools came in small envelopes!
Congratulations! -

All the DSA letters come in small envelopes. Only the successful GEP letters come in big envelopes.

DS received CO for visual arts
He also have a confirmed offer from NJC, which has the AEP program (still have to go through selection test).
DS is interested in science but and good in doodling and have good observation skills, I guess SOTA saw the potential in him since he's never attended professional art lessons, except taking Chinese painting at the CC with the aunties.
During the SOTA open house, we asked the teachers difference between AEP and SOTA's approach and they said that AEP focuses too much on competition and not letting the students explore enough. Is that true? Also my friend who's an experienced art teacher in one of the JC mentioned that SOTA's VA instructors are the artist type and not as well trained in pedology as art teachers in mainstream schools. I guess there's good and bad about that.
I'm not sure what DS would like to be when he grows up, but personally I like the IB program.
Any advice from experienced parents? Does your DC or yourself know of kids who have to chose between a school with AEP and SOTA? -
I also got acceptance letter to Sota! (I actually screamed then broke down crying -_-) I hope everyone else gets good results for the dsa. It really is a great feeling when you get an acceptance letter to a school you've be pining to go.
