[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The visit went well and confirmed for DC that they think they would like L&C socially, and it would be okay academically. But DC is still totally on the fence about the posse program and the commitments involved and also DC would like to know what all their options are (which unfortunately isn't possible with how posse works).  But the deadline is Friday afternoon, so DC has to just decide. It's been a rollercoaster -- definitely no for a couple of hours, then definitely yes for a couple, now back to indecision. I really don't know what's going to tip the scale. [/quote]

Sending good thoughts to your DC.  Just let them know that it sounds like they are all good options and whatever decision they make will likely be a good one.  A few techniques I have found helpful with knowing myself in hard decisions are: 1) flip a coin and see which outcome you feel more disappointed by, 2) Pretend there are two doors representing each school.  Envision yourself able to choose and walk through both but you have to decide to walk through one first.  Really imagine yourself walking through onto that campus through the door, starting your experience as a first year student. See if your thoughts are more curious about what it will be like, what lies before you or if they are more about what lies beyond the other door.  If you're not that curious about the other door, you know your choice.  If you are, do the same with mentally going through the other door and then decide.
