<p>Momrath- DD always said she would go to whichever school gave her the most financial aid-she has three younger siblings and is very practical. But in the same breath it was I REALLY want to go to Bowdoin. She will need some financial aid.
The issue is whether she showed enough enthusiasm for the school and clearly conveyed it as her first choice. I was totally ready to just wait and see but............this alumni keeps pushing to have her write a letter. And I had no idea whether this would be a good idea or not.</p>
<p>Thanks to everyone for their help and advice. Now I am going to go out and play in the snow!</p>
