[quote=Anonymous]My husband had to choose a totally free ride on tuition from a very small northeastern SLAC which accepts about half of its applicants, when he got into Duke and Penn, among others, but didn't get aid. I think if there was any option whatsoever of going to the better schools, he would have preferred that. As it was there was no money whatsoever and he worked with buildings & grounds all year on campus to pay for room & board. He has done very well for himself but it sure would have been a hell of a lot easier with a better pedigree. I would also be concerned about the culture shock at a place like Alabama. It is VERY different from here.[/quote]
