[quote=Anonymous]It's hard socially on students. My friend from HS did 2 years at a branch campus of our state flagship (think what a PP mentioned about Penn State Altoona, but in another state) and then was able to complete her degree at the main campus. This was done purely for financial reasons - our state flagship was not nearly as selective as UVA and she could have definitely got in. She was in the middle of a large family and her parents had no money set aside for college. She came to campus as a junior not knowing anyone except people from high school who went there. Too late to join a sorority, no experience meeting people in the dorms as a freshman or eating in the dining halls and stuff. It's definitely not the college experience a lot of kids are looking for.
