Where else should we look?

Wow. Thanks to all of you. We had a great visit to WUSTL, felt okay about U. Illinois, but not blown away, so thanks to Brianmo2 for your insights. Loved SAIC, but felt it a bit overwhelmingly conceptual for where she is in her state of mind… she thought an MFA would be great at SAIC.

William and Mary is a place I have always adored… its in the South, but its not THE South… Viriginia is civilization. SOUTH is Memphis, Alabama, Mississippi, etc! And I’m VERY grateful for the PAFA info. Penn is not very clear about its affiliation with PAFA, except in their evening/ adult program, which is not the same as the traditional student undergrad program, so we’ll have to check into that when we’re in Philly in a couple of weeks.

You guys are FABULOUS. So helpful. This is quite daunting, and to complicate things, she’s getting unsolicited applications from Yale and Harvard. I know they just want kids to apply; don’t really care if they get in or not, so its hard to know whether the app. fees and essay writing trauma are worth it!

The list continues to grow…
