[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it was sticker price at any of those schools verses Vanderbilt, then the choice should be Vanderbilt. But the opportunity cost of an undergraduate Harvard, Yale, or Duke education is definitely worth $14-$20K more than Vanderbilt in my opinion. I'm sure it's a great school, but [b]Vanderbilt has always struck me as a bit overrated in comparison to its selectivity and general academic reputation. The fact that their chancellor always is writing Op-Eds and sending out emails when the school falls in the U.S. News rankings also doesn't really look good.[/b] Your child might try negotiating with Harvard, Yale, or Duke with the Vanderbilt full ride to see if they respond with more aid.
