Michgirl, you just wait. You’ll get every imaginable t shirt during the school year. My S is a junior and he was just purging his closet over the break and left quite a few ones for little brother- all Wash U t shirts!!! (Orientation Program Coordinator, Pep Band, 4in1, his WGE shirt, diversity, etc,etc).
Now we know where Wash U is spending their money- t shirts!!! LOL

S did not get any scholarship either but he applied, knowing that it will be a long shot, so there was not a lot of expectations there. His roommate (from freshman up to now) is a Danforth and they are similar in so many ways. Who knows what this scholarship committees are looking for?
From a full paying parent I can say it is worth ever penny. We have to make some adjustments and sacrifices so the kids can go to the school of their choice. S2 is still deciding but he is already admitted to a comparable school and we might have to tighten our belts some more. After all a good education is the best inheritance we can give them.
