[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine are at the same college. When they applied to colleges, they had only a few overlaps and they had no active intention of attending the same place, but that is how it shook out, based on individual preferences around courses and post-graduate opportunities in the same field(s).

They see each other a couple of times a month for dinner or lunch, when one is ill the other will drop soup and Tylenol round to their rooms, but otherwise they socialize separately and study very different subjects.[/quote]

As the parent of same sex twins that are sophomores in college, I could have written this post. My kids didn't intend to go to the same school, but did. They are different majors with different friend groups, different extra curriculars, and see each other a couple of times/month.

When we were looking at schools, we went to large schools/small schools/urban schools/rural schools in the surrounding area when the kids had a school break/spring break/etc and let the kids decide which type of schools they were interested in. Once they roughly knew size/landscape, we focused on actual schools. For us, finances played a huge part in looking for schools so that narrowed down options.

Doing it with twins is/can be a lot of work - but we only had to go through the process once!!!  :D [/quote]
