| My nephew was just accepted to Vassar with a full ride through the Questbridge program. What makes it sweeter is that this is a kid that, up until August, was planning on community college because of finances. I suggested that he look into Questbridge and we were stunned when he got the gold ring! It was a grueling process but his persistence paid off!  I couldn't be happier if it was my own child! | |

| Such great news all around!! Goes to show it doesn't necessarily matter, in the long run, if you go to tri-cities HS in a rural county, a big public HS or a prestigious private HS. There are great college opportunities for great kids out there!! Congrats again to all!!!!! | |

| Congratulations to all - what wonderful news and terrific accomplishments from a bunch of great kids!
Adding mine - my d found out yesterday that she's been accepted ED at William & Mary. Huge amount of joy here - it's been her dream school since 8th grade. She's our youngest, so - dare I say it? - we are done. | |
