<p>I have learned so much these past months from CC and all is not positive. Both DD and I are now getting anxious about college admissions. If she doesn't get into her ED school, Emory, (the only place she really wanted to go), which of the following schools could she be most happy at as a second choice? She has also applied to WUSTL ( if she dosen't get into Emory, I doubt that she will get into Wash U though!), BU, U of Florida, Florida State U, U of Miami (1 hour from home), U of Central Florida.
Some backround on DD: goes to South Florida private prep school. Very bright, very articulate, social and adorable. Hangs out with the academic and/or band crowd and dosen't have a lot of patience for immature, or not very bright people. Wants to study undergraduate business. Very into her music ECs and plans to continue in college (concert band, drumline etc..) Not willing to spend any more time than necess. on schoolwork (does what needs to be done but loves her social life), loves city life, movies, shopping. Says she would never join a sorority, ever.
So, assuming that she gets into the other schools, which one may be a good fit for her personality? Note: Money is not an issue ( but we may have to sit her down and discuss "needs versus wants" after her last months credit card bill... )</p>
<p>BU--Boston is a great place for a musician and for movies and shopping--if your Florida girl can stand the NE climate.</p>
<p>I agree (and I am a BU alum and LOVED it so much that I stayed in town to work for two years after college!)</p>
