[quote=Anonymous]I have same-sex twins who are night and day in many ways, including academically. We have an older DC by two years, and we made a point to visit colleges wherever we went. We focused on Pennsylvania schools not because DC were particularly interested, but there are a number of schools within a very small radius that checked the box for.: SLAC, Ivy, large public school, midsize public, inner city, suburban, rural, and everything in between. To the schools, give the kids an idea of what size they wanted in some other things that were important to them from the tours and information sessions. You can also visit schools around Virginia and the DMV any given weekend day. When we went to visit our families, we built time in our schedule to pass by different universities.

Our older DC asked for a lot of opinions, but our senior twins were pretty independent in their essays in common app. My best advice is to start early.

My other piece of unsolicited advice is to apply to at least one rolling admission school. It is so nice for both DC to know of anything else doesn’t come up-  They are going to college!
