[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dad refused to help pay for my undergrad if I went to the SLAC I wanted to go to (Knox), even if I made up the difference through loans. He just didn’t see the point in spending so much money in a private no-name college. He had a good mid six-figure income, but he wasn’t rich. I’m so glad he did that. He paid for all my tuition and expenses at a cheap school and my life turned out just how I wanted it to. [/quote] Wow, I went to Knox and it's very rare I encounter anyone who has heard of it! In my case, I got enough in grants (not scholarships, just free money they gave me) that it brought the cost down to the same as I would've paid for state school in my state. I would have had to take out the same amount of loans in either case, but for me the small environment was a much better fit and I don't regret choosing Knox, though in retrospect I would've broadened my search to other SLACs.[/quote]
