A shoutout to all parents....

<p>...just wanted to congratulate everyone who received an acceptance...I've been lurking around CC for close to 3 years...NU is a wonderful school..."frazzleddad" was a very appropriate user name before my S. was admitted ED... the dealings with NU so far have been very agreeable and have alleviated a lot of apprehension...</p>

<p>If you know you're attending I'd suggest looking into hotel rooms for move in and particularly parent's weekend now...a lot of the hotels close to NU are already fully booked for parent's weekend and those with rooms are charging higher rates...</p>

<p>A few of the ED parents have exchanged greetings....I'm sure there are a lot more out there...</p>

<p>Hi Frazzled. My daughter is having me say hi. We're from N.C. and are waiting for Vandys decision and aid offer. You can tell from her screen name that NU is most definately her first choice. We'll see. So far from home and so cold. LOL.</p>

<p>We saw a lot about parents weekend on the links listed on the acceptance page. It's less than a month after school starts. Not sure we could make 2 trips up there within a month. </p>

<p>Anybody know how many parents attend? We did notice some of the hotels close by were already booked for that weekend. I'm guessing that since freshman show up earlier we can still get a hotel close by for a fair price?</p>

<p>Have you received any housing info yet?</p>

<p>Anyway, thanks for the greeting.</p>

<p>I'm not sure if NU will be "the" one or not, but it's definitely at the top of son's list. He's going to visit again next month. We used to live in Warrenville, and then in Rockford, so we know people all around the Chicago area if we get boxed out of a hotel.</p>
