[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I graduated from a NESCAC and have always understood the value proposition. DC graduated a different NESCAC and is at a FAANG earning nearly 200k two years out. Is a NESCAC worth it? I’d say yes if you can afford 85k/year because it’s an investment in your child’s future that’s enduring and will pay dividends over a lifetime. If you can’t afford the investment (and it’s important to understand that’s what it is) then the obvious answer is no, it’s not worth it.[/quote] I do believe in a small liberal arts education, but for the quality of that education, not to guaranty a $200k salary a year-ish out of college. Someone posted on another thread that their kid is making $200k at a FAANG after dropping out of 2 years at Purdue, but presumably you wouldn’t recommend that. I know you noted the college experience is a “lifetime investment” and I agree. [/quote]
