My older son is anxiously waiting for the mail every afternoon. He's looking for that all-important college mail. 
Will he get in? Will he get a scholarship?
If he can't be home right after school, he'll text me and ask if he's gotten any mail. If it's from a college, he wants me to open it right then.
Out of the five schools he's applied to, he already knows that he was accepted at three of them. And he's won a few scholarships too, which is great. So he's only waiting for news from two universities, as well as two scholarships that required separate applications.
Some of his friends, though, applied to just about every school on the East Coast. I can only imagine what their mailboxes must look like. And then, when they find out they get in, how will they choose among all those colleges? Will they make a spreadsheet comparing each college and the financial aid offered by each one? I'm glad he narrowed down his choices before submitting applications!
