So TODAY, April 12th- 3 full months after he should have heard about EA- he got a big envelope in the mail with a $90K 4 year scholarship. Oh yes, this is a rolling admissions school too. Yes, he applied in October. Yes, he heard back 6 months later. He has no intention of going there but I think it helped his ego a little.
Finally tally: 3-2-1
Albion College- Accepted- $90K merit over 4 years if he maintained a 3.0
Kalamazoo College- Accepted - $82K merit over 4 years if he maintains a 2.5
University of Michigan- Accepted- $1000 one time scholarship (but very nice financial aid package)
Oberlin- Waitlisted
Brown- Waitlisted
Northwestern- Rejected.
Halo was heard to say "If I get off the wait list at Oberlin we'll discuss it, but I think I'd probably go to Michigan anyway"
I think we have a favorite emerging *fingers crossed*

Though I should hate Michigan (not as much as Ohio State hates them), I want to say "congrats" to your son and hope he becomes a member of the Big Ten! University of Michigan is an incredible university. Good luck to him! Since we couldn't get him at the "better" Big Ten university
, I hope we at least get to claim him as a Big Ten man!
