@ClaremontMom we can pay for really any school without a problem. The added problem right now is that my dad actually threatened to not pay any tuition for UCs if I choose to go there. The only way he’ll do that is if I get rejected from ALL private schools I can apply to (which is not happening because Santa Clara University). My college counselor’s daughter is going to Scripps (she will be starting her second year soon) and I will talk to her about the environment of the school (even though she got in RD).
