[quote=Anonymous]Harvard undergrad alum here. It was absolutely not worth it in terms of an educational experience. The perception is totally right. TAs do most of the teaching, getting access to professors was difficult (because they were promoting themselves and their own research over teaching and advocating for students) and it was basically an assembly line to Wall St., elite grad programs, etc. I'm still paying for loans from undergrad and med school (sigh). I actually think my DD who went to William and Mary and my other DD went to UVA got a better educational experience than I did. In hindsight, I probably should have chosen a smaller school (there was definitely something I had strongly considered and was all set to attend a seven sisters school when the Harvard acceptance came in). My parents really pushed Harvard and I think people were like who wouldn't attend HARVARD. So, I went, but it was definitely a meh experience.[/quote]
