Well, you will have to stand on your own someday. I am sure if you are planning to go to grad school they raised you well and you will not get into trouble willingly. Other than that there is skype (you can promise to skype every day) cell phones with what they can reach you any time etc.. Usually good universities have their own security too. I am not sure what a nearby uncle could do more to protect you...

Also I would probably try to mix their universities with yours. That way when you get in and actually there is a choice to be made you can evaluate choices on their own merit. for instance if you can get them to visit the school. My parents got so much more relaxed when they saw that I am in a "good place."

Dont worry. They all know rejections and acceptances are part of the process. There's nothing you should be ashamed of! Applying to grad school involves too many parameters, many of them are beyond your control. I told my professors all of my rejections. It wasnt easy, but I felt better afterwards. It's just part of the process..hug
