Advice Please: My D has been invited to an “admitted students reception” at a local country club…evidently they must have several admitted students from our area because this reception is for an out of state LAC…I will call it LAC#1. She was planning on going until we realized that it conflicts with the scholarship weekend at a different LAC…LAC#2. My question is this: 1)When giving her RSVP, should she simply decline saying she has a conflict, or should she let the school know that the conflict will be attending another LAC Scholarship Weekend? She obviously wants the school’s interest in her to remain strong, but doesn’t want to offend. 2)Would it be appropriate for my husband and me to attend the reception without her? We were invited as well.
