[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC is at Davidson receiving FA and is also working 8 hours a week. The job has been great for adding structure to DC's routine and the money has also been helpful. DC earns about $200 a month which has been more than enough to cover extras that arise. Davidson also has Lula Bell's, a great resource for all students; but extra support is available for those who need it most.

Davidson definitely has some full-pay students, but according to their website, "about 51 percent of our students receive need-based aid, and 70 percent receive aid from some source."

Davidson, no question. Tons of high-paying financial services jobs in Charlotte, and Davidson would be supportive. Texas would squash the kid like a big. I hate the posters here who call everyone delusional, but thinking a regular bright poor kid from an iffy high school should jump into a top CS program is delusional. The kid would be up against who are likely somewhat brighter and much better prepared. And most employers really don’t care where an applicant who can code went to school. Normal bright students are much better off in supportive programs than killer weedout programs. [/quote]
