[quote=Anonymous]This has been a disappointing thread because of the one poster that frankly seems a little unhinged.

I have a DS at a CTCL school - Denison. Is it first tier - no - but then again my son didn’t have the stats and I didn’t have the money (to utilize ED) and he’s very happy - gets to go away to school - price is not much different than our state flagship and for where he is in his life a small LAC is perfect. The fact that Denison gave him some help to make it affordable is all the more reason to celebrate the model.

So if your child would do better at a LAC and your budget is for the State flagship then the CTCL schools are a great alternative. And if you are high stats then there is also merit to be had in the Top 30-50 LACs. Lafayette has a 24k/yr scholarship that helps and I know Oberlin as well as Kenyon will give you merit.

Don’t listen to the a$$hole in this thread. There are plenty of good schools out there and if the CTCL branding helps make folks aware of that fact well then I say well done.

And if you asked my DS he’d tell you he’s got a pretty sweet deal.[/quote]
