[quote=Anonymous]OP, I would pay the extra money for the far better school. I live in AZ and my DD is also accepted to Barrett but not going. If you have not been to campus - it is large and fairly spread out. The Barrett dorms are 3/4 mile from the heart of campus. Your DD will have priority registration, which is nice, and Barrett specific courses will be small. Other than those, she will be in the same large classes as everyone else. When we visited campus, our tour guide was a former Barrett student who dropped the program because she felt the extra work wasn't worth it. She said that out of those who start in the program, a lot leave for various reasons. Due to size, administration is large and impersonal, everything is done via the portal and heaven help you if you need to actually talk to a human. I know that 35K is a stretch, its a stretch for me as well. But if my DD had the option to go to HYPS, I would do what I could to make it happen.

As I said, my DD is admitted to Barrett but we're going to pay about the same as you (37K) for her to go to a higher ranked school that is quite a bit smaller, more personal, and fits her needs better. We will cross the grad school bridge when we get there. Good Luck[/quote]
