[quote=Anonymous]my top 3 guesses of why someone would do that: 1) money. Is it worth it to go to an Ivy if you're going to be in massive debt because of it...this is something each individual/family has to weigh for themselves. I can see a lot of scenarios where it is smarter to go w/ the cheaper option. 2) as PP mentioned, maybe the kid applied to Harvard not thinking they would ever get in and never visited Harvard before applying but then once they got in they visited and decided they actually didn't really like it that much? Or already had their heart set on UVA because they never imagined they'd get into Harvard? 3) their BF/GF is going to UVA and they want to stay in the relationship (I hope this isn't the reason! I hate it when this happens but I've seen it many times and in most cases the kid winds up breaking up w/ BF/GF soon after college starts anyway)[/quote]
