You'll have plenty of time to get answers specific to the school you chose when it's time to make that decision. And then all the info will be up to date and relevant.

Sounds exactly like my daughter. She started HS telling me she wanted to go to a particular school, only wanted to apply to that school and thought nothing more about other schools since they were not in her plans. When taking her HS classes she chose those that would get her into that school, did not worry about the requirements for our local universities which she had absolutely no desire to attend. When we did the college tours her junior year, I told her she had to pick more than one school. It was too expensive to travel across country to only look at one. She pick 4, one was more of a nah nah nah to me for some reason (typical bratty teenager). We went to the nah nah nah school first and when we walked away she was in love. Went to second school and she loved it, went to third school (an ivy league) and hated it although the campus was gorgeous. Finally hit her #1 school. She saw it and was not happy at all. Ended up attending and graduating from nah nah nah.
