Too many safeties?

How many years will both DDs be undergrads at the same time? What year in college is DD1?

Now, the biggest problem is, D1 got a miracle merit scholarship at an elite school, and sibling rivalry runs deep. D2 feels like she’s not getting a good deal unless she gets something close to a full-ride, so her expectations are a little too high. We are in-state for Chapel Hill, which she didn’t like a whole lot, but even if she got in she would graduate with over 90 grand in debt, which doesn’t seem like a good plan for a Writing for Stage and Screen major.

I remember you!

It sounds like D2 has moved on from sibling rivalry, is that correct?

Did D1 have much higher stats and/or some hook? It can be very hard to get a decent-sized merit scholarship at an elite school w/o some sort of hook.
