UW, of course, means University of Wisconsin to us, as I mentioned somewhere in this thread. I'm sure she'd love it here. :silly

No--she got accepted there. When she said UW I told her that I was thinking U of WI, not Wyoming. Or something like that. YOU were fine. I was the weird one. :silly

My sister got the call from Princeton a few days ago. Their policy is that they contact athletes early, which is why she received such early notification.

Congratulations on all acceptances thus far!

And, I agree with Vicki that UW is Wisconsin--at least to us midwesterners. ;)

Don't be silly. UW ("U Dub") is University of Washington. Everyone knows that! (Especially my dad and sisters #1 & 3, who are UW alums...)
