Thank you so much! I’ve never been happier and I have never been more excited for something in my entire life, but sometimes the reactions I get are disheartening. That’s what happened before I posted this question; I’ve had a few adults/parents say "Whaaaaaat? You didn’t wait for financial aid offers to come back yet? Nobody does that… What if _______? It might not be worth it… " It just makes me worry since finances are so tough these days.

I truly believe that ND is where I’m supposed to be, and that the university will be there to help me as much as it can. Obviously I can no longer appeal with “well School X gave me this much money, you should give me more if you want me to go here.”
It was never about that… But hopefully everything else works out perfectly so my mom won’t be on my back and so that I won’t have to listen to other parents’ snide comments. (:
