My current junior knows that it’s highly likely that she has one real option based on her preferred major and general location, combined with our financial contribution. She’s pretty happy with it and I think we are doing a good job at learning to love the instate public more and more. She will likely throw out a couple other applications just in case a combination of merit and basic student loans make them possible… but she’s pretty practical and thinking there are other things she’d prefer to spend that money on.
