[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Check out Colleges that Change Lives.  It's a book about overpriced second tier colleges for B students for parents who wish their kids could get into top schools but can't.  DCUM families drool over the book . . .   [/quote]

OP, instead of believing this nasty post, I suggest you search for other threads on DCUM about CTCL.  No need to rehash here what has already been discussed ad nauseum by proponents and opponents of those colleges and the types of students who actually attend them[/quote]

[b]OP, CTCL schools give very generous merit aid. Get him to study for the SATs. It pays dividends.[/b] [/quote]

OP, CTCL schools are second tier and half their students don't graduate.  They're a total scam.  Send your kid to a solid Catholic college -- Jesuit if you can -- and they'll actually graduate with a marketable degree and do well.  Don't waste your time on second tier liberal arts colleges. [/quote]

Why is CTCL a trigger word for someone in this forum? Many people have had good experiences there, and have a right to share that. It’s not marketing , it is the purpose of this thread.[/quote]

DP. People find it irritating that rubes have bought into a marketing scheme for a fairly random group of mediocre LACs that some author cooked up 30 years ago.  [/quote]
