I don't know why everyone it excoriating you, OP. You care about your niece and are worried. I understand that.

There are two separate questions you can ask your SIL. Innocently, so she doesn't feel you're interfering.

1. College debt can be crushing, and completely derail wealth building in adulthood. I understand you're looking for significant aid from these private colleges?

2. Larla wants to be a nurse. It's so nice she can have a built-in social group thanks to her sport, but I assume all these colleges you're looking at also have a reputable nursing program?

And then you'll have said your piece and must bow out. There are many imponderables, many possible outcomes, so you can't really pitch a fit now - your niece might turn out quite happy and successful, but all they will remember is that you were unhappy with their choices. You need to be very diplomatic here.

People are excoriating OP because she is stupid, which is probably one of DCUMs greatest sins. [/quote]
