[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ivies and Chicago if assured and self-motivated, SLACs if needs more support (e.g. Middlebury). I'd stick with private rather than public, and focus on securing those crucial glowing letters of recommendation. https://www.koppelmangroup.com/blog/2022/4/20/best-undergraduate-schools-for-comparative-literature[/quote] Agree ivies/elites or top lacs only. Why? It is easier to get into a top phD this way, which makes hiring in non-academia easier. Many museums preferentially hire phD over masters, and need various history and adjacent majors. Also, with the right undergrad and grad pedigree, consulting and think tank work is available to humanities (phD or not). It may not be ideal, but top private high schools especially boarding schools love to hire phD. The best ones pay 75-80k or more. Plenty to live on. Since money is not a serious concern for your family aim as high as possible for undergrad so they have many options open to them. [/quote]
