<p>S found kids who had turned down Harvard for Williams. In fact D of Harvard’s prez was one. Williams’ prez D was at Harvard. Guess they exchanged D’s.</p>
<p>Given the OP’s son’s accomplishments, it probably won’t make any difference at all to his future, and it does sound like he’d enjoy Vandy more than Harvard so I think he made the right choice for himself.</p>
<p>I do think it was an idiosyncratic choice that most students would not have made.</p>
<p>But so what?</p>
