[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a lot to be said for getting to be a new person when you start college. I was a wallflower in HS, but went to an out of state private for college and was super social, becoming student body president and the graduation speaker. Sometimes kids don't grow up to be the same person that thry were at 5, 10, 13 or even 16 yo. I know not everyone makes this sort of leap, but it does happen.[/quote] +1 My DS had zero interest in going to our midwestern state flagship. We did qualify for decent need-based financial aid, though, so we are paying roughly the same amount it would cost for him to attend a private university, so it wasn't a difficult decision. I doubt he will ever be the student body president, but he has made some great friends and I'm glad he's had the opportunity to spend time in a very different part of the country and making new friends.
