The stupid house settlement killed pretty much any possibility of D1 except at maybe a few minor schools. Indoor season starts in January, and she's already doing well better than her PR (but still ~2 feet short of what the beloved coach wants).
Academic acceptance at Montana State, Colorado - Colorado Springs, Azusa Pacific (has a spot on the track team, but D3, former HS teammate goes here)
Apps into Purdue, UWashington, Auburn, UMass, Colorado School of Mines (probably her first choice).
UofCal schools are all one app, but not commmon app, but a bunch of those are going in this weekend (EA is 12/1). I think SD, Irvine, Santa Barbara, and maybe SLO.
It's crazy to me that app fees haven't changed in more than 30 years from when I was applying. Back then $50 was a nice steak dinner for 2. Today it barely gets you chipotle. Previous Message
All the apps are in except for a few privates.
