He's been accepted to Citadel. Yay! He did not apply to VMI although I think he would love it. We have not had an opportunity to visit. We visited Citadel in April and met with an admissions director. He loved the school but is going to schedule an overnight visit. He did a CVW at USNA in April as well. He's been to USNA twice, STEM and CVW.
We live in FL so Citadel is about 8 hrs. away (easy drive) and we love Charleston. From what I understand, VMI is a little more isolated. I truly can't comment on it since we haven't been. If I had all the time in the world and unlimited funds I'd travel to all of them! My DS is also my oldest so this is all new to me.
