Geez, no future Bearcats?
@Regretful We did that last year, no harm no foul. The deposits were refundable, however. I think we would have done it anyway, because it was her number 2 pick (and it secured better housing) while we waited for number 1 to decide.
Has anyone applied to Carroll college in MT or Westminster in Salt lake?
So glad to have a parent from last year let us know @bearcatfan Thanks for answering the deposits question
@otintheschools Last year my son applied to and was accepted at both Carroll and Westminster College. He is now at Westminster College as a direct admit nursing student.
@ColoSky, I would love to chat with you about how it is going for him! I can find lots of My son wonāt be applying until next fall but those are his top 2 schools.
@otintheschools Iād be happy to chat. . is there a way to private message?
@ColoSky I dont think we can private message, and I tried to post my email, but it says it has to be reviewed by a moderator, so it might show up!
Howās everyone coming with the application results and decision making? February tomorrow. Time is flying by!
@ColoSky apparently you can private message, but I am having trouble figuring it out!
@ColoSky figured it out and sent you a message
@readthetealeaves, update here:
Denied at PSU UP last night (no cares to go to satellite campus) and just awaiting for UConnās decision release (beginning of March).
DD has withdrew from all non contenders posted a while back and we are set to visit CWRU & Miami U (Oxford) in 2 weeks, revisit Drexel & Scranton next weekend and she will revisit Quinnipiac & UConn (Storrs) with a HS friend the 1st weekend of March.
Knowing my DD, at this stage iād rank her choices as follows:
Top: Scranton & Miami U
Right behind: Drexel & CWRU (sheās not a fan of city schools)
Bottom: Quinnipiac (awarded a lot of money)
Wild card / Party schools (if admitted): UDell & UConn
@GmanCC Thanks for your update. Sorry about PSU UP and good luck on UConn & UDel! Lots of visits that will make choosing a lot easier. If you donāt mind my asking what does she not like about Quinnipac?

Waiting On:
SDSU
@Banker1 Did your DD end up at APU this year? I would like to know how it is going.
Hi @EngTchrMom Congratulations on all the acceptances for your daughter so far. The wait for SDSU is difficult. March seems like a long time from today but it will come in a hurry. Any favorite for the California gal?
@readthetealeaves Her first choice at the moment is APU. I went to SDSU, and her older sister currently goes thereā¦so I am a little partial ?
@EngTchrMom no pressure there :)) from you and her sister! Both APU and SDSU would be terrific. Let us know what she decides
@readthetealeaves, she likes the QU facilities and the 5yr MSN option, and it is me interpreting a comment about the campus layout as a slight ding. the revisit should be helpful, she and her friend are going to stay with aanother friendās sister for one night, no supervision. That should give her a real good feel for QU stundent lifeā¦ hahaha
Dās stats: NJ, 4.14 WGPA, 1430 SAT, 9 APs, Honors otherwise, EMT - 15 hours/week and selected top cadet from class of 30, hospital internship, lots of ECs & leadership
Accepted Nursing: UDel, Binghamton, UVM, UNH, Scranton, Fairfield, Quinnipiac, Rutgers, Salve Regina, Duquesne, Seton Hall, Pitt
Pending: TCNJ, UCONN
Rejected: UNC CH, UVA
UDel (Honors) is the favorite with visit in 2 weeks. Binghamton, TCNJ, UCONN, UVM and UNH still in the mix. Direct costs minus scholarships, grants and federal loans in 20-27k range.
Pitt with no merit and a small grant comes in at 39k. QU and Fairfield still about 35k even with top scholarships. Hard to justify the extra costs, since we will also have a college senior and high school senior next year. Looking forward to finishing Dās search to start working on the next one.
@jdcollegedad what schools were around $20k range?
