[quote=Anonymous]We know lots of families with twins, and we've seen it done all sorts of ways. In most of our friends' families, the twins aren't identical academically. That alone makes it likely that they will choose very different colleges. And for most, the kids were ready for some separation. You could take a road trip to Pittsburgh to see Pitt (a big fave for all kinds of students); a highly prestigious college like Carnegie Mellon; a smallish private college like Duquesne. Do the same in Philly with a Penn, Temple, Drexel, Villanova road trip. That should help them start expressing some preferences. You can do virtual visits, and then follow up with in-person once they've been accepted. I don't think this was intentional, but a couple of our twin friends picked urban colleges where they just hop on Amtrak to come home. It cuts down on the driving! Good luck! [/quote]
