[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These issues are very much on our minds in my family. My grandson is admitted to Dartmouth, Amherst, and the U with oodles of merit aid from the U. No money from Dartmouth or Amherst. He will visit them all and then decide. My gut tells he will get the best education at Amherst in his non STEM major, but that maybe because i went to a LAC and got a lot out of it. On the other hand, Dartmouth is bigger and an Ivy, and at the U he would be the top of his class with lots of extras because he would be in several special programs. He is having a hard time with the decision. Wants to do law, and I am wondering if Dartmouth would open more doors.[/quote] If he wants to go to law school, Dartmouth will not be appreciably better than the other two. What matters most will be his undergrad grades and his score on the LSAT. I wouldn't spend a lot of extra money on Dartmouth or Amherst, unless he absolutely hates Miami. [/quote]
