[quote=Anonymous]I think it best to try to have your kid imagine what would make a college experience 'fun' beyond academics. For my child, they wanted the opportunity to join a sorority and go to parties, time and easy access/proximity to the gym to workout, option for on campus housing beyond the first year so not being stressed to find roommates and sign contracts within 1 month or 2 of arriving on campus. My kid is not athletic but wanted to be able to go to games (college or pro) and wanted city access to restaurants, concerts and shopping. You may not get it all, but it's good to have a place to begin discussions. We spoke with older kids in college and watched some 'day in the life' videos of kids at various schools and it was helpful to see examples of a lived college experiences. [/quote]
