College Admissions: The "Perfect Storm"

A good USA Today article on a subject that's currently near and dear to our hearts: the college admissions process, which this year is said to be more competitive than any other year. As with the students mentioned in the article, we've heard of students whose acceptances and rejections seem to be very "random," given their qualifications.

We are fortunate that our daughter has a number of good college options. Today we toured USC.

We'll be relieved when the decision-making process winds up over the next couple weeks!
