[quote=Anonymous]Look into the Honors Colleges at some of those schools. Univ. of South Carolina in particular has one that is really good. Any idea if your child wants to do grad school/professional school? I grew up in the South and most of my friends went to SEC schools like the ones listed and did well. How successful you'll be out of one of those schools depends a lot on where you want to end up. Of course people can do very well going to an SEC school, especially if they want to end up in Atlanta or Columbia, SC or wherever. Will he get a job at Goldman Sachs right out of college from one of those places, probably not. Even if Ds wants to end up back in the DC region, if he is thinking of grad school anyway, I think most of the schools you list would be as good as any Northern state school. It makes way more sense to go to a less expensive state school (esp. on scholarship), do well there, and then go to the "bigger name" school for grad school. IMHO, an undergrad degree is an undergrad degree unless its from an Ivy. [/quote]
