[quote=Anonymous]I think the point about undergrad vs. grad focus for a program is important. There are E schools that are more undergrad focused and those that cater more to grad students. You'll want to assess how much interest professors take in undergrads and how available things like undergrad research opportunities are in practice not just on the website. If you can, get in some visits at different sized schools before the application process gets rolling. There will be less pressure to make the list and your child can start getting a sense of what looks compelling and what doesn't. I was able to do this, and, although I thought my parents were nuts at the time, I entered the college search with some very clear ideas about what was going to work for me and what wasn't.[/quote]
