<p>D is going to Whitman... in the fall! She had been admitted for spring and waitlisted for fall. The admissions office called yesterday and left a message about some "good news." She called back this morning and they let her know that there was a spot for her in the fall. She is so excited and relieved. </p>
<p>I can't say she truly knows the value of a dollar, but she is choosing Whitman over Denison, knowing that she will be responsible for contributing at least half of the difference in cost (sizeable scholarship at Denison vs. zip at Whitman).</p>
<p>I am keeping my fingers crossed this is the right decision for her. I am glad she will be closer to home and is going to a school where she can swim and where students seem so happy. I'm also glad she is going to a school that seems to be academically stronger and which will definitely be more challenging for her (although I hope it is not excessively challenging). </p>
<p>Anyone already received the big May packet?</p>
