<p>Shawbridge - I wanted to thank you for bringing up the escape route option. That’s seeming to be the deciding factor - the fact that School B - with the near free ride - seems to offer a better place from which to see the horizon of change. He’s not happy with the school - told me that he would not be happy to say he attends there - but he will be happy with the professors, will be happy with the zero debt and monies for ‘other things’ like study abroad summers, and no need to work to pay the gap between the scholarship at school A and his parents’ contribution to the cost. At school B, there is no gap - no debt. </p>
<p>Still seems sad to me to have him starting college with the plan to leave the place he will begin at…</p>
