@PurpleTitan, thank you! That’s exactly the answer I was looking for.

S already has his college list (with most UCs, UIUC and others) - he just came upon UMNTC and got excited and thus the research to see if it’s worth applying. Seems like a nice safety so far so I agree that it doesn’t hurt to apply (easy and free app anyway and we like their COA ).

As for the winter - yes, we know (grew up in Russia), he - not so much but badly wants to try. He did taste a bit of it - we usually take 1or 2 skiing trips to the mountains in winter. Not the same as living, obviously. Anyway, we thought what a better time to try some non-CA-weather than in a college?
