D has a substantial scholarship and we’ve been planning and preparing for college for a long time, so there was no need to pressure her to graduate early. She went in undecided, and had some catching up to do once she found her major going in to sophomore year. Her 27 AP credits are allowing her to double major, minor, and study abroad.

If the financial situation were different, we would have taken a different approach, but 4 years was what we budgeted for, and she is making the most of those 4 years, so for us this was the right decision. I only wish I had such opportunities when I was in college.
