[quote=Anonymous]The one kid I know at U of U is from a very well off family I really respect. I'm from the midwest and have lived in NYC for 30 years. I'm deep in the college prestige trap. But there are plenty of families like the one I know from my midwestern dats - this kid wasn't especially happy in HS, figured out how to graduate a year early, U of U admitted her, I think she even gets merit aid (she had over 1500 on her SAT which I assume is high there), she's super happy hanging with happy adventurous kids and doing well in school.

She'd probably end up well off because her parents can make that happen. And it's not lost on me that they'll be especially able to make it happen bcs they're not dropping 400k on undergrad and they spent zero emotional labor on this whole ridiculousness. They're self starters with an entrepreneurial bent and not to dox the kid, but she and a school friend have already started one interesting business and are having a lot of fun.

TLDR: I know a happy kid there rn.[/quote]
