[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH and I both went to large public universities, and we had great experiences there. Fast forward -we sent our kids to private school for K-12. When it came time to apply to colleges, both of them were dead-set against going to a small private college. Their college admissions counselors (both at school and the one we retained out of school) suggested tons of small private colleges to consider, but both of my kids were not interested. To me, the small college experience seems like it has advantages. So we were surprised when, despite the many people encouraging them to apply to small colleges, neither of our kids was interested in a small college. (Maybe if they had been in public schools for K-12, they would have made different choices.)[/quote] +1 One of our big3 kids (1550/3.8) only applied to big schools (Cal, UCLA, Michigan, Wisconsin). Wanted a different experience and all that a big research university has to offer.[/quote]
