[quote=Anonymous]I'm loosely in the higher ed industry. There are over 2,000 univerisities in the US (1,200 are research-level and/or grant graduate degrees). Surely you can find one that suits your child's needs. Ignore the rankings. The most important thing is to visit the school and ideally have your kid sit in on a class (without you there) or stay with students overnight. They should pick what feels best. In reality, a lot of the top 50 schools are too big for some people. I went to one of the smaller top 25s, and one of my favorite classes was this class of only 9 students. I took it only because I liked the professor (academically) -- it was in philosophy and not my major. Part of waht made it so great is that the intimacy of such a small class helped me educationally. My 90-person classes.. not so much.[/quote]
