You guys aren't accepting the offer soon right?

I’m not accepting until at least after CPW at MIT, at which time I’ll also revisit Harvard and by which time I’ll also already have my Harvard, Dartmouth, Swat, Yale, Cambridge, and Princeton decisions. And I need to visit Yale and Princeton. My sister goes to Northwestern, so I can go to Chicago I think, and I’d like to revisit there too. After I do all of that I’ll decide.

But the biggest thing is getting my Cambridge decision/my parents saying I can go to school in England, because I’ve wanted to go to Cambridge for forever. Well, not really, but for a while. When I told my little story, my interviewer phrased it as a “childhood ambition.”

And financial aid will really matter to my parents. My mother’s whole family has believed I would go to Yale since I was born (for serious) and they have good FA, so that might decide for me. Not that I wouldn’t love to go there.

Ugh, so much thinking.
