<p>Congrats on D’s EA! I was also accepted to MIT (100 years ago), though I never attended. </p>
<p>D has a friend who got EA to Yale, but she’s on the other side of the country (and is still hoping to come to NU if accepted as it’s stronger UG than Yale in their field) plus an athlete at her school got EA to Princeton but she’s not close to him, so neither of those really give her a friend to celebrate with.</p>
<p>Funny story… D also wears her logo sweatshirt to school, but as it turns out there’s a “Northwest University” and a “Western” state university near to us, plus the NU colors resemble our big state school, so everyone thinks she’s going to one of those schools – none of which are in NU’s league. D has friends around the country who know what an amazing school NU is in their chosen field, but she can’t yet celebrate with any of them yet as they’ve all applied RD. </p>
<p>Ah well, I guess they’ll all be able to celebrate together by when… April?</p>
