We are moving to Doha in July, and have our child on the wait list at ASD. Has anyone on the wait list heard anything yet?

Waiting is a waste of your time and wont get your child into school. I heard the waitlist is 2 years, if that. Unless you work for an IOC or embassy, you will have a tough time. We called 16 schools (best #1) until we got our son into school #17, which had just opened, which is now also full. You need to submit applications now to schools and be prepared to put a deposit if you get lucky. Or you pray that someone leaves Doha who has a child in the same class and school you want your child in. Not the best way to plan a child's education or future.
