[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because private school parents need schools that seem appealing/impressive to other private school parents. Several schools have carved out that space by being “rich kid” schools. Tulane, Wake, Northeastern, etc. Look at their Pell grant numbers, they have some of the lowest percentages of any national university.[/quote] Because private school parents understand how much better small class sizes and individualized attention can make an educational experience. I’d send my kid to a mid size private over any flagship. You are free to have your own opinions and act accordingly.[/quote] Except many schools just as popular as Tulane with the private school crowd are not very small, like Northeastern, USC, NYU, BU, McGill, even Miami. A few people care about the size, but for most that’s the ex-post rationalization of it.[/quote]
