[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do what you want for your life overall. There are cheap colleges your child can attend here if you look for them. College is not important enough IMO to make it the driver for a big decision like this. A factor, sure. But sometimes kids don’t even go to college, or delay because of medical issues, or whatever. Or take leave after a year. I have college age kids and know many who are not on a straightforward path, for all kinds of reasons.[/quote]

There is no such thing as a cheap college in North America.[/quote] There are plenty of options if your kid is a halfway decent student. Look at Texas Tech or 'Bama, which are fairly cheap with merit scholarships. (TTU merit scholarships come with an oos tuition waiver). They also have better opportunities for internships than most UK universities thanks to America's stronger economy (yes, even now). Your child would need to get in to somewhere like Imperial or Oxbridge to have comparable career options.[/quote]
