[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This so depends on the student. I knew 2 kids looking at colleges. One said "I want to see someone I know everywhere I go" and chose a 2500 student school and is happy. The other said "I want to meet someone new every day and is going to a 20,000 student school and is also happy. [/quote] +1 My kids are like this too. DS is at a 30k+ school and happy. DD is a rising senior and most schools on her list are <2500 students. They've always been very different people. I do agree with PP who mentioned that major/program size matters too. DS's program only has about 100 students per year so while the school is huge, his program is a managable size. On the flip side, DD is focused on schools where her desired programs is one of the larger priorities of the school so while the schools are small the particular program she wants still has a decent number of potential classmates and faculty.
