[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think there’s a lot of hyper-focus here on rankings and prestige.[/b] What really matters is what your child does once they’re in college. My DD went to UMD, and she and her friends are receiving multiple consulting offers in the DMV area. The offer my DD accepted includes incoming hires from UVA, Duke, UNC–Chapel Hill, and Carnegie Mellon as well. In the end, it clearly didn’t matter that she didn’t attend Duke or UVA. Some perspective is helpful here. College is just four years, and where you go matters far less than how you use those four years.[/quote] Nice post, but I think that your perspective might be a bit off as the University of Maryland is a well respected state flagship university.[/quote] It wasn’t in the 90s when OP went to college so that’s why her perspective is off.
