<p>We are struggling with the same decision- is attending AU and living in DC worth the extra dollars? We visited campus last spring and my D fell in love with it. She was accepted into the honors program so now is even more excited. While she did get a merit scholarship it wasn’t what was needed to make this an easy decision.</p>
<p>Nervmom -I look forward to hearing about your visit next week, I wish we could go again but live on the west coast. </p>
<p>bk4972b- Thank you for your thoughts on the internships. A couple of the other schools that she was admitted to offer an AU semester but I don’t feel that it would be quite the same. I also fear that if she went for a semester she would greatly regret that she was not able to be there all 4 years.</p>
