[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s completely dependent on what they majored in, their work experience, and how they did in college. All are good schools. [/quote] I recruit directly from undergrad on-campus programs and agree with this 100%. Your kid’s resume should tell me not only how they did, but it should explain why. I’m going to be drawn to someone who did well and excelled in multiple areas, not just grades. I’m not impressed by someone who got a 4.0 but did nothing else. Similarly, a prestigious school doesn’t help a 3.0 much. Give me a 3.5 or higher from someone who had multiple jobs or sports to balance, and then yeah, I guess school will start to matter if I’m comparing two similar candidates, otherwise, it doesn’t really. Go somewhere you can do well and think you’ll be invested or involved. Basically, go where you’ll be happy because, if you’re not, the other things won’t follow. (And grad school admissions highly favor a strong gpa.) [/quote]
