[quote=Anonymous]What is it about Stanford that he wants -- prestige/name recognition, 4 years in CA, that campus, a certain major? Talk to him about it -- whatever it is, you can help him find it at a school that is more of a match for his stats. I'm always curious when kids say I will only go to x -- because schools are fairly similar across the board and what can be found at x can also likely be found someplace else. Sure the Stanford brand can't be duplicated but there are some mid level schools that also have great name recognition and they may work out better for him.[/quote]
