shyanne: on scholarships, the date may or may not have anything to do with it, but yes, she did not have her application in by Nov. 1st. Unfortunately, Nov. 1st is a date that’s a fair bit earlier than many, many schools, and although she got it in well before Christmas, it wasn’t that early.

In thinking about submission dates for applications, I was originally thinking that we didn’t have to worry about getting them in too much before Christmas because most of the private school dates aren’t until later for RD. I just didn’t realize that MSU and U-M have such early deadlines for maximum scholarship consideration. And since my D had no idea at the beginning of the school year where she wanted to apply, we just couldn’t act in time.

Oh, well. Others who read this will be alerted that their students need to get on the stick as soon as school starts in September.
