[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think I'm an outlier but I think state colleges are a fine choice. I think a lot of 'top' colleges are a huge waste of money for most people but yet they think they need to go to the ' right' college or else their future is going to be ruined forever, when in reality, does it even matter that much?

Agree.  I think the only people concerned about this kind of thing live in areas like DC and NY.  The rest of the country is just fine with sending their kids to state schools.  There are some excellent ones out there.  [/quote]
Do people in NY worry about this? The SUNY system is diverse and most students (from the hand holders to the go getters) can find a good fit. I went to a SUNY and my sister went to FIT which is a public, but cool enough to be in Manhattan. ;-) I would recommend publics to anyone based on my experience.

And just for reference, I went on to a PhD at a fancy private and I can assure you that the stature of my undergrad degree is never a topic of conversation. [/quote]
