[quote=Anonymous]Annnnnd, back to OP's question ...  OP, we'd need to know more about your child to recommend some specific colleges, but as has been said on this thread, there are some terrific big state u's that could be a good fit, and some terrific small liberal arts colleges that could work - so bottom line, there will be a great fit for your daughter.  Does she like small schools or big schools (a better way to ask this may be - does she want small class sizes with participation being encouraged, or large lectures taught by prof's who are probably researching cool stuff in their main time), city life or college town life, sports emphasis or arts emphasis, to be a plane ride away or within driving distance, cold weather (snow and skiing type) or warm weather (FL type) or any weather type.  Once you get a sense from her about how she feels about these types of questions, you can come up with a good list of places to visit over spring break of junior year/summer entering senior year.  After all of that you will have a good sense of the types of schools she likes and can broaden or subtract your list from there.  Good luck![/quote]
