Sorry, that is really disappointing. My older son was rejected to his first choice, but it ended up being the best thing, as the college he ended up in is such a perfect fit and he would have never found it without the initial ED rejection.

I agree with what others have said. I took my boys to visit both Hope and Calvin and they are amazing choices. Hope has a very joyous feel. The students were just different and exuded happiness for where they were. They approached us several times to give directions or just answer questions. We spent the day there and really think it is an amazing Christian option.

We didn’t get to see Calvin as much as it was late on a Friday. The campus was very nice and their academics are good.

Both of these schools are still accepting applications and I think you will still be eligible for scholarship money. Out of the two, I would say Hope had such a spectacular vibe that I would lean that way, but apply to both and see what you think!
