[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would go with Harvard unless it's not financially viable for you at all. I went to UVa for undergrad and Harvard for grad school, so while I understand how prestigious the Jefferson scholarship is, Harvard is in its own league.[/quote] I would do the opposite. At Harvard it is really hard to stand out. Being a Jefferson Scholar gives you a leg up from the get-go and is an accolade that will be on your resume forever. Also fwiw, my kid’s HS nominates kids no matter where they want to go college bc I think the process starts pretty early. I have seen kids selected as finalists but then end up elsewhere such as Ivies (granted very small sample size bc so few make it to finalist round. Def not a yearly occurrence). [/quote]
