[quote=Anonymous]New poster here - I’d like to back up the notion that a good honors program opens many doors. One of the honors classes required at my kids school was a leadership class taught by the university president and provost. The provost wrote my kids rec for law school and they got into 6 top 14 programs, 3 with merit scholarships. That is just one of many perks they received. We are a donut hole family / we would not have qualified for any sort of aid, but also could not swing 700K for private undergrad and grad. Because we chose this path (honors/state undergrad to private/ivy/ topgrad) , both of my kids graduated with the credentials they needed for top graduate programs and we were able to fund everything in full so they graduated debt free. And fwiw they both absolutely loved their undergrad experiences.. I highly recommend it for those who don’t have millions of pre tax dollars to spend on multiple kids, and who want their kids to have the opportunity pursue a graduate degree of their choice in order to pursue their career path of choice.
