[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re fortunate to be able to afford full tuition anywhere. We told both DCs that money did not need to factor into their school choices, and we meant it. [/quote]

The question is not whether you can afford or pay for it, the question is what college is actually worth 90,000 per year.  So, if you believe your particular college is/was , state your reasons supporting that. [/quote]

DH went to an ivy, and I went to a top SLAC. Both of us had transformative educational experiences there, well with the expense. Our DCs both chose wonderful but expensive schools, and we are fine with that. [/quote]

Still doesn't answer the question. Many kids go to college and I would say many have "transformational educational experiences" while in college. Is that unique cause your kid went to an "Ivy"?  I think the OP is getting at investment $$$ and return $$$$ compared to a less expensive option. [/quote]

There’s a difference between going to a college close to home with students that were just like the ones in your high school versus a new location with people from all over who have same or better intellect to push you. Neither is a bad choice, but they are different. [/quote]
