[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP. Thank you to everyone who provided helpful information (and the "Red State" troll for entertainment - I think we can figure out how to navigate related issues, thank you!)

These schools are all good leads for heading south for a few day. A few follow up questions:

In the early summer, if we are to go north, what are some additional options? This child is a skiier, so even though I know it's all about that, I have wondered about UVM (perhaps a reach) and, while there, Champlaign College as someplace to get a sense of a small college but in a nice city. I've also wondered about other New England flagships, such as UNH and URI, but I sense they might be expensive OOS.

DC says they want a big school, but I do believe smaller to medium might be a better fit. That's another reason UVM may appeal, but again it may be a reach.[/quote]First, definitely check out App State on your southern swing--from what you've written so far, I really think that might be the one.

Second, the NE flagships all are pretty expensive OOS but it can't hurt to float in a few applications and see where the COA ends up. UVM/Burlington is great. I'd also check out UMass Amherst en route there. (I don't think URI is the answer for skiing. UNH? Maaaaaybe.)[/quote]
