Would you date someone who went to a really bad university?

If they went to George Mason, typically I’ll point and laugh at them and throw feces at them.

I went to a Tier C public university on a full scholarship and afterwards got a scholarship to a Top 3 prestigious grad school. I have a great job at a well-known employer who used to only hire from top 10 schools. I’m probably the only person from my undergrad at my current employer and got here with way less money. I think kids without a lot of resources who find a way to thrive and excel at a big public university are pretty impressive! 😄

Why would I care where she went to school? I’m interested in her, not in bragging rights. I don’t care about her resume.

Your rule is stupid.

*fistbump* You and your husband sound awesome.

I know of men in trades jobs (plumbers, cabinet makers without four-year degrees) who tell women on the first date what they do. The woman immediately assumes they make no money and it's over. These guys don't mention that they are pulling down $150,000 or more annually, and own their own homes and cars. They say their line of work helps them weed out the gold diggers right up front. The woman who can look past their job title is a keeper, and they'll spoil her to no end.

The only school I can think of is Liberty University.

Just like money or looks are important for some, eduction and degrees are for others.

It’s not about bragging rights, common interests and similar background helps.

-signed someone who went to a B (maybe C) rated state univ, and has been making six figures for the past 20 some odd years.

Money isn’t everything for everyone.

I went to UDC for undergrad and graduate school. I have had no problem dating and getting married.

No online colleges or diploma mills.

Even getting a college degree from prison would mean more than earning one from a diploma mill…..

I would question the wisdom of someone who took out huge loans to go to a for profit online university. I would respect him more if he went to a local community college, then transferred to a local public university.

Lots of merit scholarships and financial aid for top students so community college is a sign they didn’t do well in high school. If someone is attracted to high IQ high achievers, it wouldn’t be a sexy for them. It’s silly but just like some people won’t marry someone who is shorter then 5 ft or taller than 7 ft, it matters to people.

+1 And it wouldn’t be because of the level of the university, it would be because I wouldn’t want to dare an evangelical Christian.

No. I would never date anyone who went to Duke.

You went to a state school for scholarship and then went to a good grad school and good employment, it’s not like you went to community college and stopped there. Not that there is anything wrong with that but wouldn’t meet basic screwing criteria for may dating or hiring opportunities.
