I remember the college experience to be quite exciting, especially when they raised tuition and fees 26% in the middle of the summer before his last year after all the financial aid paperwork had already been processed. Not the kind of excitement I was looking for. But we survived that one and will survive the next one. Best of luck to you and your kids. Penn State is a great school! (I hope my son the Sooner doesn’t see that! ;-) )
Ah, he’s (and you) a Sooner. lol. Great Football team, btw.
Yep, the college experience is quite exciting (mine was anyway) and fortunately I didn’t know the costs back then.
Oldest wants to go to Penn State. It’s out of state for us now.. so there’s that...but she wants to go and since we both went there...we’re soft on it. We’ve been all about Rutgers (state school) but we both think if you’re gonna spend 4 yrs of your life somewhere then it should be somewhere you want to be.
Keeping fingers crossed that she gets a full ride (in engineering) just like her Daddy.
Heh. Got 4 kids. I’m sorta looking forward to the day when tuition isn’t an issue ;)
