[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD is a rising junior. We can’t really see spending huge amounts of money on tuition if fall classes are online. Would rather have kid take off the semester. I’m sure I’m not the only one thinking this.  Do you think colleges will allow existing students to take off a semester? [/quote]

OP, the university/college sentiment is that if you don't want the spot, someone else will gladly take it.  Your choice. [/quote]

Please don't listen to Randos on the internet.  Please call the college directly and ask them.  You find them nicer 99%  of the time and more informed 100% of the time.[/quote]

This, colleges need to hear that parents won’t pay full freight for distance learning.  Many people feel this way.[/quote]

PP here.  I agree, many parents do not.  I do think that many students will end up giving up their spots.

The name calling is not only immature, but sincerely takes away from other PP's argument. Most college kids know better. [/quote]

ie: many parents do not feel that they want to pay full price for online classes.  I can't say I blame them, but I do not see colleges bending for this - colleges are already losing enough money because of lost room and board. [/quote]

This is true, and why should they? If you want to take economics classes at a community college, that's fine. If you want to take economics classes with faculty members who advise the White House and the World Bank, go with a better institution. It's up to you. There are pros and cons either way. [/quote]
