[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]well, my kid's CS teacher said to him when my kid was evaluating engineering schools: * which one would you rather be at if your major doesn't work out for you? [/quote] this is good advice[/quote] DC is an athlete weighing an offer from an Ivy and Public Flagship that is ranked top 20 in DC's sport (Academically the flagship is v good but not tippy top on US News). $$ is not an issue bc our financial aid situation will make the Ivy affordable and so will the scholarship the flagship offered. I am trying to provide advice to DC while giving enough space to make the decision. I changed this sentence above to "which one would you rather be at if your sport doesnt work out." [/quote] If this is a real scenario, then Ivy all the way, assuming finances are equal. Especially if it's a big enough Ivy that dropping sport and changing majors are both valid options.[/quote]
