Just got my Tabor letter

I'm not sure why it's so late, but it just arrived. I'm in. And we're probably going to be able to scrape the money together!

I'm still hoping to get off the SPS waitlist, but if not I have a choice between Blair, Hawaii Preparatory Academy, Tabor, and Stevenson. (And I still may apply to Interlochen.) Which would you choose and why? I have no idea which one I'm going to choose, and don't have a lot of time to make this important decision.

I would go to Hawaii. But us both being from ALabama, how did you hear of the Hawaii school? It sure would be long plane rides. I only say hawaii b/c it sounds cool though. Out of my knowledge of all of those schools, I think Blair is the best though.

I know, living in Hawaii is really tempting! And I read about it on Boarding School Review and decided to look into the school.

Did you get the Greene scholarship??

It looks absolutely beautiful; I applied on a whim since there was no application fee. It's not realistic, but one can dream.....

I'm not sure, but you could probably still get in. Admissions are no where near as competative as HADES and the like.

No, I'm not going to attend Tabor. I'm choosing between mercersburg and NMH. I heard Tabor's campus is extremely beautiful, you should try visit What I like about the school is that it offers Marine Biology which other schools doesn't.
