Welcome to TGT from a guy who is currently, and has been for years, saving every dime he can get so that he can send his daughter to A&M in 3 years.
Of course she wants marine biology. Figures. Kids and their crazy ideas. And before you mention A&M Galveston just stop. I graduated from A&M Commerce and while My degree may say A&M on it its just not thing as THE A&M.
Understood about the college thing, I have I sophomore at OK State (OK A&M to some of us) that is wanting to go to med school. I have another that is a Jr in HS and headed to Stillwater too.
