Timmy's College Decision is....was...is now....May 4, 2018

I think this one was the worst college acceptance of all three of my children.   Timmy had to choose between three amazing colleges:  Penn Wharton, Duke, or Notre Dame.   And although he had almost 5 weeks to decide which college to attend, including several long trips to each campus, overnight stays with friends at all three colleges...it still came down to 11:40 pm on May 1st.   And even then, after he pushed "Send" and his college choice was made....it still made him unhappy.

So, I called the college he really wanted to go to, where he felt most welcome, where he felt like he was most like the other kids who go there, and where he thinks they have an amazing Computer Science program.   And like the meddlesome mom I am, I asked him if he could still go to this school.  And the Admissions staff said "yes."

So, it has come to pass, after much debate, that Timmy will be attending the University of Notre Dame this fall.  And we could all not be happier!

But nothing is ever final around here until the fat lady sings...so hold on for any changes.
