[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Start touring schools and start using the net price calculators on their websites to estimate your costs. A pp is right that mid-tier private colleges could be the same price after merit aid as state schools. And when you tour school, you and your son will see that the quality of facilities is not related to whether a school is public or private.[/quote] +1 my kid visited both our Southern state flagship and [b]pricey private northeastern SLAC’s and noted that the buildings/facilities at some of the SLAC’s looked worn and dated.[/b] No swipe intended at the privates - I graduated from a northeastern SLAC. [/quote] Interesting & accurate observation. Often state flagships have superior facilities & a better range of academic options.[/quote]
