<p>Today was decision day for my daughter's school, and a long one it was! I worried all day because she committed to the school with a 20% scholarship only, in a blind leap of faith that she'd qualify for additional merit aid.</p>
<p>So we just found out that she did! With the merit aid, she has roughly 50% of the cost covered. I am soooo relieved!!!</p>
<p>Now to look forward to her season and hopefully some best times, and then next year as a college athlete!</p>
<p>Thanks to all who were with us along the way ;-) </p>
<p>And you better believe I drained that wine awaiting this decision. They released some states at 3, but her account wasn't updated until NINE! Good grief.</p>
<p>Congratulations to your daughter! So sorry you had to wait so long for a decision, that must have been torture. I will join you in a celebratory glass of wine!</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone! And she got another acceptance in the mail today too (a school she applied to when all her visits were not panning out and she was having limited options) along with a scholarship offer that was less than what she got yesterday. So that was a nice reaffirmation that she made the right choice!</p>
