We are only an hour away…and my daughter is 30 minutes away at Bard! It was actually seeing how my daughter handled being so close that convinced my son to look at Vassar…and then fall in love with it. She lives in the dorm, we treat her like she’s at college (she is) BUT she does bring kids home for dinner from time to time and we do pop in for lunch and coffee when we are in the neighborhood and for our family it’s really really nice. My son loved Bates almost as much as Vassar, but it is SO far away.

Also, re financial aid and ED…my own understanding is that Vassar is very generous with financial aid but that if you don’t get what you need, that is the one circumstance that is allowable for reneging on the ED agreement. Don’t take my word on that, but that is what I have heard.
