My daughter will be classmates with this kid. She also got the Presidential Scholarship.
She didn’t apply to the Ivies. She did a tour of Duke and didn’t like it. We live near Stanford and she didn’t want to go there.
She applied to 3 schools Clemson, University of Georgia, and Alabama. It was a tough decision between Georgia and Alabama, but she chose Alabama.
She lived the honors college at Alabama, and she loved the professors that she met.
She is rooming with 2 National Merit Scholars.
The only problem will be football season because I’m an Aggie?
My daughter is a rising senior at UA with the National Merit scholarship. She has absolutely loves it. She was accepted to Vandy, Fordham, Northwestern, FSU, Pitt and several others. At all, her costs would have been $0. She fell in love with the school and could see herself fitting in. She has gotten a great education and will apply to grad school this fall. And the football games are an amazing experience. ROll Tide and congratulations on your daughter’s success.
