If A&M ends up being right for her we'll go forth with all guns firing. I said it about 46 times now but I really appreciate all the info I've gotten here from all sides.
She's 15 and decided she wanted to be a marine biologist when she was about 4. You think well that's nice but it'll change but in her case it hasn't in the least, she just gotten more passionate about it over time. She's been a certified scuba diver since age 11 and has assisted the instructor that taught her in classes for adults. I know I'm just bragging but she's a remarkable kid. Anymore if she says this is what she wants to do I take it seriously and learn everything I can. Hence this thread.

Completely understandable. Sounds like a great kid.
I'm sure she'll end up finding the right place for her. Also, with marine biology, she'll be spending a lot more time in classes, studying, traveling to the coast than most of her classmates. The town of her college may not matter as much really.
