[quote=Anonymous]We didn't limit where DD applied (we live in PA and she applied to schools on the West Coast), but most of the schools ended up being in the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast and the top choices ended up being a hometown university and colleges 2-4 hours away. She's now 3 hours away in Ohio. One of her classmates was strictly prohibited from applying anywhere farther than a day's drive away (5 hour radius for them), supposedly out of cost reasons (the reality was that the family had a one-parent income of $200k+ and two kids in private schools). Our family learned that there is some generous merit to be had in the Midwest, so it could have benefited the daughter to perhaps apply to a few colleges a stone's throw farther away. [/quote]
