<p>Congrats! Making the decision where to spend her next four years is a huge step in your daughter’s future. I truly believe that that undergraduate program, intern/research opportunites for undergrads and the city/campus vibe need to be in just the right combination to create that ideal fit for each student. Believe me, if she’s happy – you’ll be happy!</p>
<p>I remember reading a funny demotivator poster (which my son found rings very true at Georgetown) Good grades, active social life, adequate sleep – you can only pick two. Welcome to college! </p>
<p>Throw athletics into the mix and she’ll definitely need a strong advising/support network to help ease her transition from the rigor of HS to the academic rigors of a university such as Gtown, UPenn or Yale, plus manage the time/travel commitments of playing a sport. Best of luck!!!</p>
