They interviewed her on the spot. That was total chance.
Brown, Northwestern and Cornell are all in the same category right now- He needs to see them to know whether he "feels it" there so all three are up in the air. He might apply to all 3, he might not apply to any of them. We'll see. I do think Cornell is much bigger than the schools he is favoring, but that program might make it worth it.

Plus, Cornell is in a pretty, woodsy location...it might feel smaller to him than the schools in cities.

Maybe, but he thought the school where you teach is too big (the rural campus!)and I thought it seemed really cool so... we'll see!

Ah! Cornell ILR School is also a state school--would that help in terms of cost? For OOS, I have no clue if its much cheaper than the endowed schools. It used to be that ILR and the Ag schools were considered a backdoor way in but they're actually really good.

My experience with Hypo is that, with our financial aid situation, most schools were within a couple thousand of each other no matter what their Total Cost of Attendance.
She enjoyed meeting you
