Agree with PP—there is plenty of time. The more you push this, the more she will go in the opposite direction. Also, where is her father in all of this?

It's still early. DC does not have to make a decision yet. Let it percolate.

I told my dd you are going to state U unless you get merit to make the cost comparable.

Will not decide on any? Or will not decide on the one you want? If the latter, then +1 to the quoted comment.

DC admitted to 4 schools, 3 good choices, 1 we believe is the superior option by far. I am step mom, but I will be paying for college. Any advice to steer DC to our preferred school? Would it be horrible to refuse to pay unless DC goes to preferred school?
