Work with what you got!
Also, so many great colleges. There is no one right way to go.
Come on, idiot. Donut hole families often forgo private colleges for state flagships undergrad.
We aren't paying $85-90k for the T10-T20s my son was accepted to this year. We did the math. We looked at the outcomes. Not worth it for us.
I work with 4 Ivy grads and 3 state flagship alum like me. We all had the identical post-grad outcomes and are making the same 30 years later. I started with all of them at age 30. In fact, they report to me.
My son also went on admitted events to the two T10s and the T20 and likes are in-state better. win-win.
