[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Yale was our DC's (rising freshman) first choice after researching and visiting. My sense is that many of the kids who go there do so (rather than some other great schools) because they value what they sense is a warmer culture there that is focused on undergrads and really values intellectual interests -- not just professional success. The residential college system -- while not perfect -- does seem to be in a league of its own in terms of helping to create a more intimate school experience. [b]But we really tried to mute DC's expectations and I suggest you do the same.[/b] If your child has the stats she should go for it, but it is really a crap shoot and no one should expect to get into these schools.
