[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Xavier University. Go Muskies![/quote]

We are heading there with our 11th grader. What made your DC choose Xavier?[/quote] 
I'm not PP but my kid is going to Xavier! She chose it primarily for the occupational therapy program. It's a combined BA program where you can earn a BA and master's in 5 1/2 years instead of the usual six AND you don't need to apply to OT programs - as long as you keep a certain GPA as an undergrad, you have a spot at Xavier. But less specifically to that program, she liked the campus, loves college basketball, and actually found Cincinnati very appealing. She found the campus community very welcoming and tight knit. She also likes the Jesuit model of education.

As a parent, my wallet really likes it because with merit aid, it's pretty comparable costwise to an in-state VA school (and my DD was not at the top of her class - she had a 3.75 GPA and 29 ACT) and Cincinnati is soooo easy to get to. When we flew out to visit last spring I think we paid something like $95 for RT, nonstop tix. [/quote]
