When my D was deciding where to go to college 2 years ago, Iowa State was on her short list. She loved everything about it except for the location/weather and the fact that her parents went there. Well after 2 years at Tulane, which she chose because of rankings and location, she has decided that she really would rather be at Iowa State. We are still waiting for financial aid, but I’m sure there will be less money than what they offered as a freshman which will mean it will actually cost more than Tulane is costing us. Sigh. But, I do believe that Tulane was never the right fit for her and she will be happier at a bigger school…until cold weather hits. hahaha We live in Louisiana so it will be a bit of shock for her! So, any other transfer students? She’s a math major and thinking about the Women in Science and Engineering Transfer Learning Community in Frederiksen? Suggestions for other dorms/apartments for a junior so she doesn’t end up with a bunch of freshmen? Anything else we should be thinking about?
