[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On top of everything above, consider (1) breadth/quality/availability of backup options in case DC decides to change major because 70% do (tho maybe that falls into the “academic” bucket?) and how easy to transfer between programs/schools at the same university, and (2) any idea what job placement coming out of college looks like? This was important to a friend with STEM kid, who picked Rose-Hulman in part because of its career office’s hustle on behalf of students and great post-grad placement ratings. Sure enough, kid landed a great job right out of college.[/quote]

I wish there was a ranking of schools by some metric like "Career Services that go above and beyond".  I would think Rose would be like that, but also good to hear it confirmed.

Seems like you hear about a bunch of other schools, where the kids are out applying online to 400 different companies with little help from Career Services.[/quote]

Here's one list (and Rose Hulman is included) https://www.collegexpress.com/lists/list/the-experts-choice-colleges-with-excellent-career-counseling/271/
