<p>No, no decision on which school yet. I promised myself I’d wait until all the schools sent me accept/reject letters which will take another week or so. It’s funny as I only applied to BArch schools and some of them are very selective, plus the Arch programs can be small (like PS only takes 70 first years), and hard to get into. So on the advice of my GC I applied to eight schools (actually she said I should find 10 to 12!) to make sure I got into at least one or two. It’s incredible getting accepted to several, and I feel lucky, but the down side is it makes the decision where to go hard. I have two friends who are very happy now, each going to the only school they applied to…
CP Arch is great, it’s sooo highly regarded, I’d be an idiot not to enroll, yet I would like to go out of CA, plus my mom is terribly worried about the CA budget cuts and what it will mean over the next five years. The two profs there I spoke to last week had concerns as well. One talked of broken equipment that doesn’t get replaced. The other said educating more kids with less money is not a good thing.</p>
<p>I see a few sleepless nights headed my way the end of next week.</p>
