[quote=Anonymous]My kid picked her school (out if several options). She chose the least expensive school, which was not the highest ranked by any means. I think she felt a good fit at that school, but she was also influenced by cost. Fast forward to now: one year after her graduation. She has zero debt. She has just been admitted to grad school (her goal), but it took a year . So, she has earned virtually nothing in the interim (between graduating and trying to get into grad school—she worked at a few low paying internships in her desired field ). I am so glad that she will start grad school debtfree. She had a great experience in college (again her choice), and did not miss the higher ranked schools one bit. (In fact, I suspect, she shined more as a big fish in a small pond. For example, she won a few new scholarships her junior & senior years—which we did not expect. One was voted by faculty at her small college.) Good luck to you and your child.[/quote]
