daughter announced last night that she was going to NCF, only potential wrinkle is her wait list at Barnard, but that would have to come through with generous FA to change her mind.
She picked NCF over Ithaca, American, Emerson, UVM-honors, SUNY New Paltz and Drew, all of which with her merit were still about $10k per year more than NCF with Bright Futures and merit. She will leave New College with no debt. She was rejected by Brown and Vassar, wait listed by Barnard and Skidmore.
I’m exited with her choice, I had a good feeling there and I think it could put her in a superior grad school versus her other options. I think it is a good fit socially and I think she has the drive to manage the self directed curriculum.
Good luck to all!
