| Thank heavens I found this thread-it is almost like a virtual "sleepover" as my D would say. S and D now have 5 acceptances in hand with various scholarship amounts in hand, but the "reaches" and now all the anxiety shift to those: Vandy, Pepperdine, plus 2 ivies for D. What is so ironic is two of the schools they heard from this week have been on their main list for a long time. The letters arrived and there was a non-plused reaction-ARGH!
It is stressful waiting to see scholarship/FA packgages-agree with so many of the posters here-go to bed thinking about it and wake up doing the same. Our kids had no interest in any of the Georgia schools "in state". The angst of all of the "last" times and the dread of knowing they will be leaving home in the fall makes me truly glad I found this thread. |
