Emily got accepted
to two of her colleges today.


Columbus College of Art and Design, cleverly located in Columbus, The Ohio State (I think that's how it spelled); and the Art Institute of Pittsburgh.

Much to follow. Decisions, logistics, and several zeros on the end of a figure that may exceed everything we've spent on education (all of ours) to date.

For now, though: WIN.

Thank you:) I know she'll go through Wegmans withdrawal either place, but if she lives her dreams, I'm sure even Finast (or whatever they have there) will somehow seem okay.

Kroger, actually. Well, at least in Columbus.

...hey, actually, I think my mother's best friend's daughter is married to the son of someone who is high up in the arts program at OSU. I will look into this.

I should've mentioned that I majored in Smartass. CCAD is not part of OSU; rather, I refer to the whole state as The Ohio State to razz a particular Buckeye fan who sometimes frequents these pages.

That said, I'd love to get a perspective from someone in the art community who might be familiar with CCAD's programs.

woot woot!

Despite my bad memories of all things PSU, as a graduate, I'm contractually obliged to discourage her from going to Ohio State. :)

Also, re: those zeros, keep your eyes open for private scholarships. They're not often very much (usually just a couple thousand dollars or so) but they can be really helpful in offsetting the cost of books and things. They have scholarships for everything! I know we've written a couple of letters of rec for people applying for the Italian-American scholarship with some sort of blahdy blah ties to some guy in N Buffalo.
