[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish UMW was even a possibility for us - it doesn't have EITHER of the programs my daughter is looking for.

A cute little instate school an hour from home close to a historic walkable town would be an absolute dream for all of us.

Oh, well - we're not UNhappy with her options. And even the private options in state for her aren't too bad (the VTAG money will be nice)

Just...sigh.[/quote]I know you have Shenandoah on your list. That is where my DD is entering her second year for nursing. She really likes it, and the Winchester historic district is nice.[/quote]

That's great! We honestly have to hope for a talent scholarship to afford it, but the Conservatory is a big draw for her. She got to meet a couple of the instructors already, saw a performance in the spring and that is probably her dream school. I just hope they accept her!

She has 2 of the schools on her list that actually get a lot of mentions for her performing art - the other is in MA. Winchester would definitely be preferable just from a distance perspective!

We came out for a visit to Old Town Winchester a couple years ago with my MIL and our niece and nephew. Had a really nice afternoon out there. It is a very cute area.[/quote]I hope it works out for you. Some pieces of information that might help you decide: during DD’s first year, her general education classes had between 8 and 15 students. They start off finals week with a late night breakfast offering at the dining hall. During finals week they schedule time for some baby goats and miniature horses to walk about campus to reduce student stress.[/quote]

Thanks for sharing :) I follow several SU/ShenCo Instagram accounts and it seems like they do a lot of fun activities for the student body.

We shall see where she lands. I would be very happy if she was only an hour from home. And again, it would be amazing if she was accepted into the ShenCo program that is highly regarded. She will probably double major OR possibly combine the science with the art into one degree (there is a growing field that does just this but the actual degree is only offered at a few schools at the moment)[/quote]
