Did something drastic and devastating happen to your financial situation between November and now?   If your financial situation is basically the same as it was 3 months ago, and you already knew she wouldn't go even if offered a spot, why apply?[/quote]

Don’t owe you an explanation, but she applied far and wide and has been looking for scholarships too. We had no idea she would even get into UMD when she applied early action to VT. DH and I have 5 VT degrees between us, and we love it there so we were happy to pay the fee for her to apply there. But no, we don’t plan to pay $200k+ for an undergrad degree when UMD is cheaper and has a higher-ranked program. [/quote]

That still doesn’t explain why you had her apply if you had no intent to send her. You knew she wasn’t getting a scholarship[/quote]

It is called safety school. [/quote]

Its needs to be a financial safety too. This was not a safety.
