Olga just completed her first semester of 10 with a grade point average of 91. Her brother is currently part of the UVA program and will graduate in 2 more semesters.  When we originally met the family several years ago - they were reasonably confortable- BUT in

the past year and a half things have changed drastically as father now has a serious kidney issue  and can no longer work at all.  Everyone in the family is stepping up and trying to help with the finances. Normally we do not accept two at the same time but feel that this a special case and esp. since her brother will be graduating soon.
