[quote=Anonymous]My neighbor's DD is there right now.  She is a fabulous girl.  She was a finalist for TJHSST, but didn't get in, so went to our average FCPS high school.  Took all the highest classes (including the AP calc classes).  Was thinking of being a math major, but settled on econ + Chinese at Wash U.  Her parents say the campus is like a country club.  It is very expensive.  Their DD is having a great experience.  She is also on a minor sports team.  She was considering Welsley and W&M too.

Most of the kids there have plenty of $$.  Their DD is rooming with 3 other girls.  One is on financial aid, so she could not afford the extra expense of having her own room in the apartment-style dorms.  The other girls arranged it so that the girl on financial aid could have the room that cost less -- to fit with her aid package.  She was not made to feel inferior b/c she didn't have $$.   But, I think the general vibe of the students re: vacations and consumption is "we have plenty of $$."[/quote]
