Please tell me what your application process was like in Monsey schools. Particularly neutral chassidish. I'm getting vibes that im no one's priority applicant but I'm not sure if this is the way it belongs or not.

For the coming school year, you need to apply now. Call all schools you're interested in. If you have pull, use it.

I received a rejection letter barely a week after I applied to one of the schools. They did not bother even calling my references. Is that the way it works? If I have no pull, what am I supposed to do?

ETA I am not toeing any lines. My sheitel is standard length, I dont have a smartphone. I dont know what I'm supposed to do.

Keep bothering them. Put on your calendar to call every ten days. Then put on your most demure outfit and come down to the school

So I did that too. One of the schools now told me to call pesach time, should I do that or be a nudge?

The classes may already be full.
But unfortunately, you need to bother & beg. No one accepts just by application unless you belong to the mosdos & they know you, or you offer lot's of money.

Which chassidus do you belong to? Which school did you attend? Are these options?

Impossible. I literally applied the day they opened registration. Practically speaking, what does bother & beg mean? Call every day? I keep calling and they usually give me time of when to call back which im extremely on top of. Other than that, I'm not sure what else there is to do, especially after I got a rejection letter.

Classes may be full with siblings alone. Registration for the public opens up after registration for current families.
Yes, you need to keep calling every couple of weeks. And not just one school, you need to try at least 3 schools.
