<p>Daughter got in engineering but doesn’t want to attend. Feeling very frustrated. The admitted student reception was nice but hectic, to be expected from such a small school. Reasons she doesn’t want to go: NYC a bit too much for a Texas girl, no chance at a minor like international relations (its all engineering), school clubs didn’t exist for her varied interests, room and board situation scary for such an expensive city (only one year guaranteed with no food service). She’s fine with NYC as a tourist but no as a young resident who’s from Texas suburbia. Oh well, GWU is her choice. With her merit aid its about $9000 more per year than the $20000 to be spent on room and board in NYC.</p>
