[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]how do most people evaluate the “value” comparison in situations like this? We can afford the full pay, but we aren’t rich. full pay is an ivy, 50% scholarship at a school in T25-50 range [/quote] Back in the day, I had a choice between full pay at a T5 law school and a full ride at my state flagship law school. I chose the T5 school, even though the cost wasn't going to be easy. While one never knows for sure how life will turn out, I am quite certain I would never have had the same career opportunities or career earnings that I've enjoyed if I had chosen the state school. So if this were my kid, I'd say go with the Ivy.[/quote] That's different. 100% go to the T5 law school because you can get a high paying job to pay back the loans quickly. OP's kid is looking at an econ major. That's more of a gray area in terms of getting a higher paying job than you could with an econ degree from a top 25-50.[/quote]
