No he got in to sdsu and cal poly Pomona. Still waiting on San Luis obispo, and my first choice, the coast guard academy. I like cal poly Pomona… Location wise it works for me…[/quote]scaredy, that’s a lot to choose from! Congrats to your son! I think if I were him, I would wait for the outcome of my app preference for Cal Poly SLO before deciding. Your son must have had very good “credentials.” Either that, or you didn’t file a FAFSA (or both). (Not filing a FAFSA greatly helps a “B” student to get accepted into CSU as a freshman, IMO.)
Let us know what he decides.[/quote]
He’s a 4.0 plus/ very high SAT student, probably could’ve got accepted to some prestigious schools, maybe legacy at the Ivy League school I attended, but who understands the virtues of low tuition and paying cash for school as I’ve explained it.
My mom thinks I’m a bad man for being so cheap. On the other hand the oldest is very very happy and successful at SDSU, so she feels less that I am selling my offspring short. Still, she would prefer I push him to go to the most prestigious school, regardless of cost.
