My son was accepted at The Univeristy of Alabama in Tuscaloosa and also at The Univeristy of Alabama in B'ham. He received the Presidential scholarship from Univ of AL Tuscaloosa which is full tuition with a guaranteee to increase scholarship if tuition rises, and he received $8,000 towards tuition and additional $4,000/year housing allowance at the Univ. of AL B'ham. Boht of these were merit awards based on ACT/SAT scores and GPA.

My son was accepted to Carleton College. We are thrilled, excited, relieved, a little bit shocked (also glad not to have to continue with the ten other applications--second time we've been through the process and my older child didn't apply anywhere ED).

My twins are all set as well. Daughter accepted Immediate Decision (similar to ED) to Bard College right before Thanksgiving, and last night son received ED acceptance to Washington University in St. Louis.
Apps are done, kids got their first choices, and this Mom is starting to shed tears, wishing they were 4 years old again.

My son was accepted at Yale (SCEA) yesterday. Our delight is only tempered by the fact that we already paid the fees and sent in the supplements for all the other schools he applied to RD.

I think my D's plans are in place as well- got a full tuition offer and was invited to compete for Chancellor's and Med School Guarantee at Pitt, but didn't really care for the campus; accepted to Honors at UMich-Ann Arbor; deferred at G'town and Caltech. Same time the deferrals came, nice scholarship offer from Michigan. What was also nice was that she also realized Michigan was a great school for her- good programs in Math, Biology, French and Chem but also a great school spirit with lots of opportunities. So it looks like she's a future Wolverine at this point.
CC has been a great resource for us- without all of the great advice I have received here I don't know where we'd be right now. Hunt, I'm like you- thinking of all the other applications we've already submitted and the $$!

DS2 received acceptance today to the University of Connecticut Honors Program with half tuition merit scholarship. (WooHoo!) He has visited UConn and knows students in the Honors program and can definitely imagine himself attending so its a great day here in the middle of midterms!

I posted that my D was accepted ED to Macalester on Saturday. We got the Financial Aid Award letter today and now mom is doing the Happy Dance !!! Mac was more than fair and made my daughters dream come true.
I was laid off from my job a month ago so I have been seriously worried how this was going to play out. Miracles do happen !!!
