[quote=Anonymous]I remember from my Ivy days that the school made clear they strongly discouraged students from graduating in three years (as well as taking more than four years). The Ivies have 4 year graduate rates in the very high 90%s for this reason. During my alum interviewing days I remember being advised by the admissions office to filter out the students who expressed interest in graduating early as that was a sign they only cared about the degree, not the school experience.

Just a FYI for the OP.

[quote=Anonymous]OP -- are you assuming DC would get a BA in three years, regardless of which school she attends?  I'm wondering because you're asking whether it's worth the extra $120K.  If that's not your assumption (and if your cost data is right), the difference in cost is 160K.

If it is your assumption, are you sure it's accurate?  The rules vary widely from school to school and whether 3 years is realistic can depend on major and on the availability of particular course in particular years.  It may also preclude things like study abroad.  [/quote][/quote]
