<p>We have had a great experience with my d’s bs. </p>
<p>We were lucky and had few schools to choose from. My d, in her more than mature nature, chose the school where she felt she would fit in best. </p>
<p>My d didnt select that school that gave her the best FA package. I have many times struggled to make ends meet, but would not change a thing. I made myself known from day 1. I didnt over do it , but made sure that all her teachers, coaches, deans, even support staff know that my d came from a caring/loving family and I would be involved. It is surely not easy, even as we go into the last year.</p>
<p>Our school has set up a parents network to get the parents more involved. The idea is working out extremely well. I believe that this closer connect of parents gives us support and power. They have even paired “old” parents with “new” parents right after the kids make their acceptance.</p>
