[quote=Anonymous]My parents' philosophy was they would pay for the best college we could get into. I don't know if I share that viewpoint now that I'm a parent myself. I tend to think if your kid is a strong enough student to get into Emory then she'll do well no matter where she goes and UMD is a great school too. If she goes to UMD and excels there, she will likely have no trouble getting into a good grad school and/or starting a great career. Emory has more prestige and overall it may offer a better college experience but I think for most kids the benefits of going to Emory over UMD would be marginal. Lots of very successful and smart people go to state schools and get great educations. [/quote]
