Thanks so much for the update!
If that difference is meaningful in the decision-making, have you reached out to Seattle to see if there’s any additional funding possible?
Congratulations to your D! I was about to say that you could repost on your own thread (here) but I see that the thread is now locked. Perhaps reach out to the mods (@Lindagaf, @momofboiler1, @skieurope) to see if they’d be willing to unlock it so you can let everyone know how things turned out? I always love seeing resolutions to the match me threads.
