[quote]DC has about 14 days to decide. Undecided on major - maybe trying for the business school McIntire at Virginia. As a parent, is it crazy to think Chicago will have fewer distractions compared to the rah-rah UVA[/quote]?

Where does your DC want to go? Since they got into these two fine schools, let them choose. [/quote]

These threads are stupid. If the child is bright enough to go to college then he/she should be able to handle the decision on their own. Why are PARENTS asking these questions?

[/quote]

Because over a hundred grand is at stake and they want to make sure they aren’t just throwing away that kind of $$.  [/quote]

Plus with 50% of the kids (supposedly) changing their major during college, imagine paying $70K/yr for Engineering or CS and the kid wants to become a painter or counselor or some shit like that after two years!

We know someone who sent their kid to a top private university for pre-med and the kid ended up picking psychology as a major because he "likes to work with children".   Last we touched base, he was working at a school in the Chicago area.[/quote]
