@suzyQ7 I have not only applied to 5 schools, I’ve applied to 10. But even if I had applied to 5 schools, I think that is perfectly reasonable because applying to 5 schools is often $300+. And I have mentioned in the previous comments, my parents are in denial about the cost of college and think that we can take out thousands of dollars of loans and be fine. I did not apply to MHC because I didn’t like it, and it would not be worth going to a college I didn’t like unless I got a full boat that covered everything. And you know as well as I do that they probably will not give us a twin discount. My parents are willing to “pay” for any college me or my sister want… which is part of the problem, because they don’t understand that they can’t.
