<p>Gina- sounds like you have gotten some great advice with all the posts- will venture to add in one more. Please consider the school you will be most comfortable WITHOUT sports. Sports are important, but a torn rotater cuff can sideline you at the pool for the rest of your college days- so while it is a nice “bonus,” don’t let sports be the determining factor- you will need to be content with your choice if, for some reason, swimming must be factored out of the equation. Base your choice on goals and academics, where you feel comfortable (after that overnight stay- a must!) and only then let the sports factor into the whole thing. </p>
<p>Choices can be agonizing, but how lucky are you to have some great ones before you- either way, you really can’t go wrong! You are a smart young lady and I have not doubt that you will make the right one for you! Best of Luck!</p>
