SanDiegoMom Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 DS finished off strong with an acceptance to Berkeley. This is the school his older sister applied to and got rejected or waitlisted three times - once for undergrad and twice for law school... so she's going to kill him:) 15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have some sibling rivalry going on here, too—mostly my college grad is bitter about this kid’s superior FA offers. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely where we are all assuming he will go but until he clicks on his SIR I am not going say anything to jinx it! Same with his twin - she's choosing between two and we ALL want her to go to SB but also know that it's got to be her own choice 😂. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jplain Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 DD accepted to: American University + honors: merit award lower than expected based on NPC, but she didn't like the feel of the campus anyway Bryn Mawr: good merit award, but not as much as hoped for Dickinson: very good merit award 🧜♀️ Indiana University + honors: not enough merit aid to justify high OOS tuition St. Olaf: very good merit award UCONN: no honors invite, small merit award (in state) University of Georgia + honors: excellent merit award (OOS) University of Kansas: max automatic merit award, but rejected from their honors program (OOS) She was rejected from the one Ivy she applied to at the urging of a family member, but she didn't want to go there anyway. We are very happy with her choice! As she applied she was leaning toward Bryn Mawr, but the cost would have been a reach, the academic program she wanted was abruptly discontinued (grant not renewed), and she decided that the student body might be a bit smaller than she would prefer. UGA ended up lowest net cost and is very strong in her tentative fields of study. Go Dawgs! 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanabug Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 My first homeschool graduate! Applied and accepted to: Freed-Hardeman University Harding University Oklahoma Christian University (her top choice and she has committed to OC). Still waiting on complete financial aid numbers, but it looks like at least 2/3 of her first year will be covered by scholarships. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except the grant, this was literally the same Bryn Mawr process I went through in 1989.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment she is planning on Russian + International Affairs, and she'll probably pick up at least a minor in French as well. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
