[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]they are great places for wealthy moderately above average athletes to spend 4 years after hs

don’t expect them to help find u internships or jobs - gc at a nescac told my son to “use family connections”.  for $87k this coming year and a 3.8 gpa econ major, i was hoping for more

so i did use my connections

this at a school next rung under williams / amherst

my kid really does like the experience though - hope he can get a job next year

my next kid will NOT be attending a NESCAC - will be attending a school that helps find a job[/quote]

Interesting you say that as I've looked at the outcomes data provided many of the NESCAC schools and their graduates do quite well with vast majority employed or interning in a field of their study/interest or attending graduate or professional programs[/quote]

The vast majority of their graduates are the children of wealthy and upper middle class parents. Those not employed can easily afford graduate school [/quote]

So like any other elite college or university.

That's not exactly a ground breaking statement [/quote]

No, not all. It was in response to PP's post about vast majority being children of wealthy and upper middle class. It may not be news to you but it is to others[/quote]
