Did you know the most important line in your child's application is where you—the parent—went to college? Did you know that you can qualify for financial aid even if you make $192,000 a year?
Eisenstock uncovers startling information, starting with how private school admissions directors decide who gets in. Does the child of a single woman of ethnic diversity on financial aid have a better chance of getting into an elite kindergarten than a child of a middle-class white couple? He will ask Ivy League students, their parents, and their admissions counselors the $500,000 question: Does where you go to kindergarten ultimately help you get into the most prestigious colleges?
At its core, The Kindergarten Wars is a human drama. It's the story of a quest and the people who are vying for the prize—a space in private school kindergarten—at any cost. The book is honest, funny, suspenseful, and emotional.
