[quote=Anonymous]My kids are young so I can’t answer for them. But I went on a full ride to a “party school” in state about 4 hours from home. Don’t regret my choice of college at all. I believe you can get a good education anywhere if you put in the effort. And a lot of the state non-flagships are looking for top students to fill out their honors programs and honors colleges, so I got a lot of opportunities that way too. I do wish I had majored in something else though. I was a magazine journalism major - yikes! The job market was good when I started in 2000, not so great by 2004! I never worked in the field. I should have been an English major like I wanted originally. My husband graduated from an Ivy undergrad and wished he had done the honors program at an in-state school. He was in the donut hole and got no financial aid, so his parents paid for as much as they could and he had to get student loans for the rest. [/quote]
