[quote=Anonymous]OP: I feel the same for a bit, but let it go... DD is high stats. Perfect score on the math section of SAT. She's a freshman at a large OOS state university, majoring in engineering. We are also paying around 40k out of pocket. She's having the time of her life. Loves her classes and professors. Loves her roommate. They are making great friends all up and down the hallways. Going to sports games. Joining clubs. She could have gone to several higher ranked schools in general all over 80k. As a family we decided that double the price tag was not a good idea. I am not trying to chastise you but what if the situation were reversed? you were paying 80k AND the child was unhappy? That would be bad all around. Lean into the happiness --and best wishes to you! I do get where you are coming from. You sound like a great mom who wants good fit and best opportunities for your student. That's nothing to be ashamed of! [/quote]
