[quote=Anonymous]For my kids, they both wanted schools that leaned more liberal. We live in a very conservative state, and they both wanted to be in blue states/cities where the colleges were more diverse and LGBTQ friendly. I think that's a very important metric to consider when choosing schools- some may call it 'vibe', but basically will my kid fit in here and be able to feel comfortable? Other considerations were a specific club sport, distance to airports, and distance from relatives. My husband was an administrator at his university during Covid and he dealt with kids who got 'stuck' on campus for months during the shutdown, with no way to get home. Our kids took that into consideration- they didn't want to be somewhere they couldn't realistically get back home (or to relatives) if something like that happened again. [/quote]
