<p>Hi Swat friends,</p>
<p>Just got the good news in the fat envelope! It came US Postal Service, and all day we were watching for the FED EX man! My son is blessed in his acceptances, and has some hard choices; this one is especially sweet as his sister was so happy at Swat! No word yet on financial aid as they were missing something from his dad as of last week, but I think it is all there now. Hope so!</p>
<p>YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Could not have happened to a nicer person and son. Congratulations to your son..and maybe I will see you on campus!</p>
<p>MomofThree, is Swat his first choice? I noticed he is in at Pomona as well..</p>
<p>Achat,</p>
<p>Thanks so much!
We are so thankful for every acceptance! Don't know right now what is the top choice, which is partly my fault, as I did not encourage my son to get his hopes up in this era of heavy-duty college admissions! We will have a clearer sense of the options after this evening and after the financial aid comes clearer. (Money is an important factor for a variety of reasons.) Anyway, he got a Bellingrath at Rhodes, which pays for absolutely everything, and along with Swat, is in at Wash U, Pomona, and Sewanee. Swat is a very special place, and he has to have it near the top of the list, but he was very taken with Wash U when he visited recently. So, there are three more to hear from, such high reaches as to remain unmentioned till a little later. I would love for him to go to Swat, and if he does, you and I will definitely have to make contact!!!</p>
