The way Dartmouth does it is interesting. They do not waste time with u until they see your tests and grades. The at some point they slip into the conversation.."sure u can afford $85 k a year"?

Hate to break the bad news but they are both in the same list price ballpark according to https://nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/. It doesn't sound like your going to get off cheap either way @Gary D.

@Good Knight is exactly right. Dartmouth doesn't waste any time until you have test scores & grades and they see you play. If you are offered to visit Dartmouth, my advice would be to go if they are high on your list. My son garnered some interest from them, but didn't visit. He had a previous committment from another Ivy. There were no more calls from Dartmouth after that.

Good luck!
