[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you force your teens to attend an in-state college 30 min to a couple hours from home? It's high school 2.0 with largely the same cliques and all of the same baggage and social sorting from high school. If you have the money and/or they have the stats for merit aid, you ought to nudge your teen to broaden their horizons. Go West, young man.[/quote]

I don’t want my kids to attend a school in state. I can and will pay for private school tuition. I would not want to pay out of state tuition for an average public university.[/quote]

Strange - so schools line UNC, UVA, W&M, UMD, Univ of Florida, are all ranked in the top 50 but you won’t let your kid consider them for some strange reason that makes no sense to me.[/quote]

My oldest child has 4 years before he goes to college. I was just saying I was not forcing my teen to attend in state. We can afford and plan to pay private tuition. Of course we will support him wherever he wants to go.

I guess if I’m paying, I would rather pay for private tuition than OOS public tuition. Perhaps my child’s best option will be another state’s public university. Guess we will see in a few years. Perhaps Penn State will be his best option.[/quote]
