[quote=Anonymous]You should give your child the agency to make their own decisions, but present all the options, with an open mind on your part. I agree with those saying apply to different types of schools, but I think you should visit them before apps start (I don't recall if you said what grade your child is in) because once your child gets the idea in their mind that they want a large flagship, it will be hard to break that. Make visits to all types of schools now. I don't agree with your perception of big flagships. We knew our DD was clearly only interested in those types of schools, likely because both of her parents went to one (WI & MN) and she had lots of memories of being on those campuses with us. But we devoted most of our college tours to smaller schools to make sure she had full information. She wasn't swayed a bit to apply to smaller schools, however. [/quote]
