@DPPhD going to visit ?
D is still in the process of sending out apps. Her two top choices are The Ohio State University and University of Alabama. She’s extremely happy about getting admission to UA. Still has to send out OSU app. If she gets into OSU, then she will visit both campuses and take a deeper dive into both premed/Honors track before making up her mind.
Received the Presidential Scholarship letter in the mail yesterday. $26,000 a year.
$20k scholarship.
