[quote=Anonymous]Given that she's first gen/low income, she needs to go to a school where she has very good advising and the administration does not let her fall through the cracks. First gen/low income have very high drop-out rates in college, even with full scholarships or being very smart. They have so many more emotionally-taxing stressors in their life compared to their fellow students. They may feel like a fish out of water. Is she an ethnic minority? If so, these very white SLACs may be really off-putting. I'd go to whatever school had the strong support system for her. [/quote]
