[quote=Anonymous]Op, in most states it's important that it's The Flagship within the state - the predominate school, the one which would attract the best students in that state. There are a few states where it could be argued there is a runner-up to the flagship so close is prestige that one could choose either. But start with identifying The Flagship is each state. Having said the above - what's now important is fit and geography. Do not ignore voting patterns and consider your child's politics. It's no fun to go out of state and have it be extra-hard to find your people. Geography: how are they going to get their - airports/college shuttles, etc. Know the % of undergraduate vs graduate. Know the % who live in college housing and if it's available. Know the % for Greek Life and it your child wants it or wants to avoid it. Cost, if cost is a huge consideration, apply widely and wait for final figures on cost-of-attendance before falling in love.[/quote]
