[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Congrats to your daughter. She sounds awesome. People are right that these are transitions for everyone. If chooses Harvard and has questions feel free to reach out. I went there and have family there now and happy to chat with her if ever helpful. (I also interview as alum and actually believe it can be very helpful fwiw) [/quote]

I am the poster. The recent posts have been very encouraging. Yesterday was ecstatic but we are growing a bit more anxious. 
Her father wants her to remain near the family. He would rather her go to UVA (1-hour drive from home )
She wants to be a pediatrician and my recent research suggests that UVA would better pre-med option. More and more we
are leaning toward UVA. It just feels like a more comfortable place for her and the family. Any thoughts?

Congratulations on the admissions success! What you're expressing is part of what makes being a 1st Gen college attendee more challenging. If it is parents who are anxious, let DD follow her dream, whatever it is. If it is DD who is anxious, be sure to visit before making a decision. Lots of kids go far away for school. UVA is a great option, but nobody should pass up Harvard lightly[/quote]
