[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More than HALF of auburn's students take longer than four years to graduate???????????? https://www.collegefactual.com/colleges/auburn-university/outcomes/[/quote] Why are you so shocked? Only 50 of the 580 public 4-year-colleges in the US have 4 year graduation rates above 50%. National average is 19%...[/quote] That's actually my one reason to push my kid into a more prestigious institution. I don't think the education is necessarily much better, but the "better" schools have much higher graduation rates. I went to graduate school at UVA and taught some labs. There were kids there getting Cs that would absolutely have gotten Ds and Fs at the "crappy" state school I went to as an undergraduate. It's undoubtedly even worse at many more prestigious schools.[/quote]
