In at College of Wooster with $50k per year merit award (3/4 of tuition), and in the running for the full-tuition scholarship. Excited about this option!

Interesting list and great opportunities!

May I ask how Oregon landed on your kid’s list? I’ve heard some kids talking about it and wondering if it’s trending up or how kids from my area (MoCo) are hearing about it.


It is my alma mater and my DD loves their football team.


That game last week, though!!

Congrats to the Oregon admits!
I live here now and work in the administration at UO. Welcome to Eugene!

In at Indiana and Loyola Md as of today!

Also Loyola gave enough merit aid where the COA would be $25k all in.

Same here!


Swarthmore has a freshman class size of about 400 and two of them happen to be on this board. What are the odds?


The odds are pretty high. DMV private school students, whose parents populate this board, always send a handful to Swarthmore.

Don’t know about Clemson but my kid and nephew are both at SC, one is a bio major and they both love the school and are having good experiences.

Also, for what it’s worth, SC has direct flights from DCA and IAD. Clemson is harder to get to/more rural.
