After taking a minute to recover from our San Diego trip, we headed up to St. George for the rest of our spring break vacation. We arrived at grandma's house last night, and early this morning Chelsea and I headed up to Cedar City to check out Southern Utah University as a possible college for her. The junior preview program was well put together. We attended a couple of workshops about how to choose a college, deadlines for admissions & scholarships, and how to get involved in college to make the most of the experience. We got to tour the campus housing, have lunch in the cafeteria to get a feel of the SUU atmosphere, and then toured the campus itself. We got to talk to the admissions counselors and several students. Chelsea wasn't really thinking seriously about SUU but after the program I think it's now in her top 3. She would love to go to Utah State but SUU has the same small town feel and is closer to home. She'll apply to a few colleges and we'll see where the scholarships come in. That will be a big factor. We had an enjoyable day together. It seems a little sur-real to be thinking about college already. Not sure I'm ready for this step - but she is :)
