[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My parents were right, I was wrong. I went to a 1500 student suburban public HS. I thought I wanted to go to one of the top remote SLACs as that was how I envisioned college. They thought I would get bored quickly but humored me and let me apply ED. I got deferred and didn't end up getting in. I got into some other very good SLACs but ended up going to a bigger school (though not too big) that was a much better fit. Ironically, my child thinks they want to go to my school and I think they might be better off at a SLAC because they are coming from a much smaller private HS.[/quote] Small schools are really hard if you don't have a good friend group. A mid to larger school is better. Don't push them to a small school if they don't want it. My parents did and I ended up transfering.[/quote]
