| With five acceptances in hand and waiting on UVA, it may seem as if the "waiting" doesn't apply. But for many, the wait for financial aid packages is just as brutal.
My son appears oblivious and is going about his life as normal. I wake up in the morning thinking about financial aid and go to bed at night dreaming of great packages. I calculate how much "more" I'd be willing to pay for DS's preferred school and I fantasize about laying out 3-4 great packages and telling my son to "pick" his favorite.
I go to this board way to often, to the point where there is usually nothing for me to read and comment on. Considering that he's had most of his EA acceptances for a while, this has been going on way to long. I wonder what ever happened to my real life. |
