@honestmom, Thanks, that is hopeful. I hope she gets substantial merit, though they do say you need a B+ “plus” the high SAT score. We’ll see. I am hopeful because her art classes don’t count in the gpa, and she had done well in them. Her counselor is mentioning her perseverance (as well as her taking honor courses, though not AP, except for Art) in the face of her LD. Her SAT is very high for the major she wants. The person reviewing her portfolio at National Portfolio Day had great things to say as well. Fingers crossed!

By the way, has your D heard from her last school? I’m just relieved to hear from our state art school, because we know that we can afford it. LCAD gave a nice merit, but it will still most likely be out of our reach, Ringling gives so few merit scholarships that it would be like winning a lottery ticket, and the COA at RIT is still over $50,000.

It is good to know that in 4 years we will be paying our last college payments. Best of luck!
