[quote=Anonymous]OP you seem to have a big chip on your shoulder. Relax. If your DD is really that smart then why send her to a crappy school just because she won't be surrounded by wealth. That's really not a good long term strategy. What schools are you thinking about that meet your socioeconomic criteria? Even Montgomery College will have some wealthy kids in it. Have you looked at the financial aid profile for the schools your DD is interested in? I bet it is way higher than your current private school. I also find it hard to believe that your DDs friend is a shoe-in to any top school and already has "dibs" on freshman housing. That seems very unlikely since the top schools have tried pretty hard to eliminate those kind of class distinctions. If you are that concerned you can certainly require your DD to go through the normal housing process and live in the freshman dorms with a roommate. [/quote]
