My daughter has been accepted by the college that was her first choice: Worcester Polytechnic Institute. She is deliriously happy this morning.
Now, we have to find the money to pay for her education. Hopefully she will qualify for some financial aid. WPI is a very expensive school (over $50,000 per year), though one that is a good fit for her, as her goal is to become a Biochemical engineer. I suspect we may be eating a lot ramen noodles for dinner the next few years.
Still, today is a day to celebrate. I’ll try to hold off on my anxiety over funding her education as much as I can.
