<p>I think you have the right person, but I haven’t done it yet. I would really like to, though, and its academic quality paired with its relatively close location may let my parents allow me to do this. Although, I doubt I’ll have to worry about getting in with my stats :)</p>
<p>Also- I’ll have to try doing some of your ideas; they sound great (and easy)!!! Some of it I already do, but things like extra chores I do rarely. So yeah, looks like I’ll be dusting tommorow ;)</p>
<p>And, Mom2collegekids, I do have to admit that large schools are starting to grow on me. I noticed your kids attend U Alabama, and I am applying there (looks awesome :)). I’ve also been asking friends and family that currently attend large uni’s about the size issue, and they have been basically saying that “You can always make a large school small, but you can’t make a small school large!!!”. Guess that there’s a lot of truth to this, so thanks so much for the additional reassurance.</p>
<p>As for the money issue… </p>
<p>I assumed that my parents implied that the amount to attend Miami was the amount they were willing to put toward my education in general. I would have to make up the difference.</p>
<p>Again, Mom2collegekids, thanks so much for your advice. It has been wonderfully helpful for me. :)</p>
