[quote=Anonymous]Surprised no one's mentioned this aspect yet -- A student with certain medical conditions might do better closer to home, depending on factors like the condition, how well it's managed, whether the student should be relatively near specific doctors who have been treating them, etc. I've seen threads on here talking about kids whose medical conditions meant it was wisest for them to be within a pretty easy drive of home, both for parental support and to be near medical facilities or doctors who were familar with them. That's probably a fairly rare situation but it's definitely a real one. Mental health is another consideration for some kids, I'm sure. Travel cost and logistics surely is a much more common consideration, but medical/mental health can make some locations "too far away." Highly variable depending on the student and family though.[/quote]
