I guess I didn't realize Oberlin was that competitive. Poor Halo. This whole process stinks. Did you say Brown announces today? I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
Two of my fellow professors are a married couple -- they have a bright daughter who has also applied to highly selective schools. It's looking like she'll attend Michigan, strictly from a cost perspective. She actually got into MIT and the Univ. of Chicago, but no aid was offered, so it's just not financially doable. I feel bad for her, because she got in, but they just can't afford those schools without any financial aid.
On the bright side, she wants to go through recruitment, and our Beta chapter is recolonizing this fall!
