A quick warning … last year, there were UD students who invited DiScho candidates to go out and party (it was over St. Patrick’s weekend, but I think that could have happened any weekend). Apparently, some went. I would strongly advise students against this … the weekend is busy and tiring and there is a lot of money on the line. Last year, there was an optional first night on campus with a host student, when is when these invitations were issued (not by the hosts, as far as I know). I don’t believe there were any such options on the second night, which was in a hotel. My D had a great experience with her host student, and got a taste of campus life, so I would recommend that, but would suggest caution.
