[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you even want your kids to go to your alma mater? You are not raising mini-mes.[/quote] I'm not. But if I wouldn't get into my safety school, what chance do they have at getting into a quality college?[/quote] My safety school (UCLA) and my sibling's safety school (UT - Austin) have both totally changed, and now offer an education that's at least as good as what I got at my T10 school so many years ago. And their admissions statistics match that, and the caliber of their student body match that. There are so many "quality colleges". If your kids are similar to you as students, they will have options that are just as high quality, and just as selective, with just as bright peers as you did. The name on the diploma will just be different. [/quote]
