[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I kept my mouth shut till the bitter end and then pretty much forced DD to apply to UVA, an in-state option. I think I asked her at 11:30pm on the last day, to please do it and she could then have the car and go out to a party. She was already accepted at several OOS schools that I liked better, and an in-state choice, but I just worried. I worried that families of most of her close friends would ultimately decide their child had to stay in-state, because of money, and friends would end up at UVA. Would she really be happy going OOS and knowing no one? Well it didn't happen that way for the friends. They went of to Princeton, Northwestern, furher away. So, the panic that drove my craziness was not necessary. DD still jokes about,  and seems to take some pride in her half-@assed application, that put her on the waitlst.

So, I kind of regret acting so crazy. Glad I kept crazy at-bay for as long as I did. But know I would do it again.[/quote]

Considering where your high school friends are going to college is like the worst decision I have ever heard. [/quote]
