<p>So…apparently you got accepted to a large public university that is offering you a free ride?? That is NOT listed on your list of accepted schools none of which are public universities.</p>
<p>I’m sorry but I think there is far more to this than just “oh it’s far away and it costs more”…especially since you say your parents can pay for any school.</p>
<p>What kinds of conversations did you have about college BEFORE you applied? Did you discuss distances, going where the money was, etc.?</p>
<p>Bottom line…any of your schools INCLUDING Vandy are great schools. Can’t comment on the school that supposedly is giving you a free ride as that is not on your list of accepted schools.</p>
