[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've reviewed the Forbes financial ratings as well as 990s for various colleges that my DC is interested in. With trade school applications on the rise and the looming enrollment cliff, would it be foolish to go to a solid LAC but one that is not nearly as flush as the top, elite LACs? Will the weaker ones decline in reputation and networking value, or worse, close? How important is a school's financial health when deciding?[/quote] Not just LACs, but larger private colleges too. Concerns?[/quote] Wake Forest and Tulane? No. Unranked colleges that fall in the “regional” category? Maybe take a closer look at financials. But, bigger schools tend to have better name recognition, at least in their region, and more room to maneuver, cut departments and generally adapt to changing market conditions. [/quote]
