I guess keep repeating that makes you and your daughter feel better.

I don't need to repeat it. She got into her dream school. 529 fully funded...money not an issue for us!! She would never have enrolled anyway...she even would have picked one of a couple lower ranked schools because they were a better fit for her and just nicer in general. She's happy!!
