The Best Colleges/Universities that You May Not Know About

[barbino]

My nephew decided to go to Ohio State this fall. He finally decided between OSU & Michigan State. He applied to Illinois and Wisconsin & was waitlisted & eventually accepted at both. He applied to Xavier (Cincinnatti) and UCONN and was accepted at each. Only Boston University denied him. I was right; his parents let him make his own decision although they considered the financial aid at each school.

He did upset my one brother by refusing to even apply to Duke. But I told him that his fraternity is there & they have a big house. Recruitment is second semester, so I'll let you all know what happens.

I can't wait to visit and see the campus; he said that he wants us to visit him during his first semester.

MSU was his first choice until he was accepted at OSU. I think OSU showed more interest and possibly gave more financial aid. Both are great universities.

Yes, and since this brother never married, he is so hoping that one of the nieces/nephews will go there. I think that he gave my oldest niece a Duke sweatshirt when she was 12 to plant the seed in her head. She still has 2 years to go, though. (Smilie).
