>My daughter visited Mexico as well. However she developed a crush on a young man in Costa Rica, and until this year when she got a local boyfriend, was convinced she wanted to attend college in Costa Rica. It would have been very cost effective at least :o) I'm glad she wants to attend college in the states though now :o)

I can very much empathize with you. My younger daughter who started college just a week ago wanted to go to University of Maryland (it was her 1st choice in the spring). For us, especially for my wife, this would have been "might as well be in Costa Rica" <g>. We were very relieved that she finally settled on a local university.
