[quote=Anonymous]OP, its great that your DC has wonderful options to choose from. Just keep in mind "fit" means different things to different people and more importantly kids change a lot between 18-22, try to help your student get specific about what they like/don't like at each of their options and also to imagine how that might change over the 4 years. For my current college student whose final choice came down to an Ivy or top SLAC, the SLAC felt more comfortable but he also felt he'd be much more likely to outgrow it. And don't dismiss the practical things like whether there is guaranteed housing all 4 years how hard/easy it is to travel to (connecting flights are a bummer anytime there are weather issues) [/quote]
