[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends. If they're true ultra-safeties your kid has a good change of dramatically reduced tuition and honors. Which affords a community but the overall cohort is less strong. I'd actually say that at less selective colleges the more important thing is the size: if your kid is smart and using it as a super safety and there are only 2000 undergrads they are far less likely to find other kids like them. At a very large safety (likely a state school) they will find similar kids who attended for a variety of reasons. I teach at one of these schools that is smaller. It's nice for a lot of kids and a let down for others. The very capable tend to easily rise to the top and thrive or leave early. [/quote] Agree with this. But the same logic suggests that OP should look at high-acceptance-rate OOS flagships as well as in-state schools. [/quote]
