S accepted with merit aid at latter 2. Visited Laf (for scholar day, so didn’t get sense of other kids), will be visiting richmond, did overnight at Colgate. S Loved Colgate. We could come up with $ for Colgate full pay, but wonder if it’s worth it. Also concerned that overall school GPA is low and S is considering Med school. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Wait until after the University of Richmond visit before deciding.
I think it all depends on what sort of weather your S wants. It’s snowing in this part of the country today. I’d imagine how much money Richmond gives is important. Richmond has that great $4k research grant and the campus is stunning. My D got into both Richmond and Colgate and of the two only considering Colgate.
Funny @byeretirement. My S got into both Colgate and Richmond as well. He and my wife both really liked Richmond. But I believe he’s ruled out Richmond for a couple reasons. Location - Richmond too far away from home; better contacts in NY for Colgate for Bus job.
