caseyatbat-- Hi! It’s good to hear from someone who has roots in WA. Do you and your family live here? My brother graduated from the UDub (go huskies!) and I’m also applying there. It’s funny, 'cus when you’re raised in WA you don’t really see UW for the awesome school that it is, until like your senior year! haha. Now that I got into BC, I feel a little torn. I love Boston College because it seems like the perfect school for me (nice city, size, Catholic, great education, “the college experience”). Now with UW, even though my biggest concern is the fact that there are 40,000 students, its still an awesome school. I am also going to apply for the honors program at the U to see if I can get into the smaller classes and avoid those crazy 800 student sized lectures! But even if all this happens, I have a feeling that I will still go with BC. Although I’ll probably receive crappy aid (i’m going to really miss the instate tuition!), Boston just seems like the place for me.

What is your daughter’s situation? Congrats on her acceptance… I bet she’s ecstatic! Like I asked before, are you guys from WA?? 'cus if you guys are and if both your d and i do go to bc, it would be nice to know that there is someone whose coming from the same place as you.
