[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find the adult responsibility required at European universities very appealing. The US undergraduate experience has become an insanely expensive extension of high school. I am not paying 200-400k for my child to bounce around exploring basket weaving and kinesiology. A focused course of study with a good ROI at a price we can cash flow suits me fine. [/quote] You could also just send your kid to UVA in state and tell them not to change majors? Or whatever your flagship is… Wouldn’t that be cheaper than flying your kid to Europe? I’d think it would be difficult to land summer internships from across the pond too. [/quote] I am not too worried about this. I think stepping off the conveyor belt and having a different life experience is no bad thing. I followed an unconventional path myself and would say that I benefited enormously from it. Not just that my career has been fine, but that I have had a very interesting life.[/quote]
