I read through most of this thread this morning (I skipped a little of the middle). It really has a happy ending and shows what a good influence College Confidential (not to confuse with recent Credit Card discussions) can have on a high schooler’s life. It’s also a reality check for those kids, and parents, just hoping that financial and/or merit aid will drop in their lap, as well as the power of a safety or three.
