Thanks! Agreed that the decision is not easy in the least. For various reasons, I think she’s 90% decided on St. Olaf. She did a hard comparison of the pros and cons between the two schools (for her) and St. Olaf came out ahead slightly ahead. I wish we’d been able to visit Dickinson one more time for clarity but we wouldn’t have been able to until this week, and she decided for her own mental health it was better to not add additional uncertainty to the mix that could come from a follow-up visit at this late stage, when she was pretty sure of her decision. Haven’t deposited yet, but I anticipate doing so on Saturday. Once we’ve done that everything will feel a lot more real!
It’s really hard to close an excellent door, but she can only attend one school.
Has your son made a decision yet?
