I am a twin and we are currently seniors in high school. As the college season approaches we have been thinking a lot about whether or not we will separate for college. I am just worried that we won’t get in the same college or get really great offers from different schools. I’d really appreciate it if someone shared their experience with twins and college. Thank you
I don’t know if this will help you at all, but I figure it’s worth sharing: I know a set of twins who initially went to different schools. They had very different academic interests, so going to the same school wasn’t really an option. They both ended up transferring for different reasons, though I think part of it had to do with being so far away from each other (pretty much different sides of the country). Now they go to different schools in the same city and live off campus together, and it seems to be working really well for them.
I really depends on your relationship and what the two of you want. I know twins who went to the same college and twins who went to different colleges and both worked out fine. In general I think each of you should make the best decision for your own interests/goals or there might be some resentment eventually.
