Hugs to you krsmom, as I know this is a stressful time for you all! My family was in a similar position just 4 short years ago. D3 was an indecisive child since birth; always afraid of making the wrong choice. Final college decision came down to 2 totally opposite type schools…an OOS public and a private, Catholic. A substantial scholarship at the latter made the cost at both about the same. I dont’ recall either giving D that “magical feeling.” We visited each school twice and after several agonizing (for hubby and I) weeks, D finally chose the private, Catholic. I think in her heart of hearts she knew it was the right choice all along, but it was so opposite from what she thought she wanted when she started her college search, it took a while to reconcile it in her head. Must have been the right decision because she will be graduating in a few short weeks with a degree in accounting and a job at a big four accounting firm set for September!

Good luck to you and your daughter and have faith she will make the best decision for her future. Keep us posted!
