[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s test your Critical thinking. Shall we....

Sara wants to be a business major. Sara also plays soccer. Sara’s parents make 250,000 a year. Sara doesn’t qualify for much aid. Sara’s parents can help with the cost. However, Sara’s parents also want to retire at some point. In order to do this, Sara’s parents try to find ways to minimize cost while achieving the same outcome for their kid. Sara doesn’t want to start her post college life in massive debt.

Sara has 5 offers from various schools that are similarly respected. The soccer programs range from Top tier to bottom tier.

What should Sara do?

A. Pick the school that has the lit soccer (1-100) program but requires her to get a 100,000 dollar loan

B. Pick the school that has the decent soccer program(100-200) but requires her to get a 50,000 dollar loan

C. Pick the school that has a bottom tier soccer program (200-300) but pays in full.

Her parents make $250k a year?  Sara’s parents if they lived within their means and didn’t buy a McMansion in Ashburn, can easily afford any of the above choices without making her get a loan so that they can have a cushy retirement. But let’s ask the more salient question: which school has the best [i]business[/i] program and is it significantly better from a learning and career opportunity perspective?  Make a decision based on that factor and not soccer. If they are all relatively the same academically then pick the free ride unless she’s also interested in a career in soccer post college and you’d like to see her have this once in a lifetime opportunity. Then pick the top school and pay the $$$ because her happiness and life as a young adult is more important than yours. You had your chance. [/quote]
