Yesterday, I got back to Bellingham after an exciting trip to Nashville to visit Vanderbilt University. Truth be told, the trip was probably more about visiting the city in general to get a feel for the neighborhoods, the housing markets, and the downtown life. I spent one day apartment hunting and I found several decent places.
Friday morning was my visit to the clinic. It didn't take long to see why this program has been ranked #1 in the nation since 2004. Their facilities and faculty are industry leaders! There are far too many details to list here. Lets just say that I was VERY impressed with their program. I felt very comfortable there and think that I would really enjoy going there! They were able to offer me a decent amount of financial aid while I was there. Unfortunately, The original cost of tuition is so high that even with their current offer, I wouldn't be able to justify going there. I told the graduate program director about my situation and he was very responsive. I'm going to be talking with him on the phone this week and he may be able to revise their offer! If we can get to the next level of financial award, we are thinking that we will accept!
I really wished that Heather could have gone to Nashville with me but there were several things in the way there. We are both sooo anxious to know where we will be moving so we can start making more concrete plans! We are really hoping that we'll know more on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. We will keep you posted as always!
