I am the poster. I am shocked to see some of these reactions. Here is a little background. 
We are in Virginia but not in DVM. She will be indeed the first in the family to attend a 4-year college.
She handled all her college stuff. Father is a blue-collar worker and I work in health care. 
At the start of the process, she only applied to two schools: UVA and VCU. But the school called 
a meeting and urge us to consider top out-of-state schools. They specifically said that our daughter was
underselling herself. Applying to these schools or even getting accepted was not on our radar until this meeting with the school. 
It was at this point, I started doing some research and started reading stuff on this forum.

She also had a good interview. The interviewer specifically said that it was his best interview. [/quote]

Congrats to you and your husband for raising such an impressive child.

(And kudos to your school for appreciating her potential, and helping you design your search).[/quote]
