[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Several years ago my daughter applied to 3 or 4  CTCL schools (all in the midwest) and 3 top 20 schools.   At the end, she was debating between Northwestern and a CTCL school.  She chose the CTCL school.   She liked the vibe, class sizes and teaching focus at the CTCL school. Plus, they offered a significant amount of merit aid.  The money she had left over in the 529 made it much easier to go to law school.  Currently, she is clerking for a federal judge.   [/quote]

Why can’t you just name the school already?  That’s what I find so annoying about this whole thing.  Was your kid choosing between, say, Evergreen State and Northwestern or Reed and Northwestern?   There’s a huge difference between those two schools.  To group all of these schools together and suggest that they are all so special and unique and interchangeable that you don’t even have to name the school is ridiculous.  [/quote]

DP: People don't name the school because for some there may be under 3 kids in the DMV going to a school that small and far away and only one is currently clerking for a federal judge.  People like to protect their own and their children's privacy on an online forum.  CTCL gives you a broad sense of what the school might be, and she mentioned in the midwest.  That narrows it down plenty. [/quote]
