[quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm getting a little worried about his chosen major. Don't tell us if you don't want to but if it is only offered 20 places in the country and it is not on the tuition exchange, this raises red flags. [/quote]

I have to admit I'm a little curious about the major, too.

My DD was interested in a couple of majors that are primarily offered at land grant schools (but not all of them), so she was somewhat limited, but the list of possibilities was probably over 30.  Her GPA was a little low for the one in-state school that offered what she was looking for so she's leaving the state.

If your kid has specific places that he would like to live, then crossing off states that aren't on their radar for whatever reason is probably fine unless they are missing out on the perfect program or free tuition by doing so.  DD was not interested in going to states where confederate flags are flying or where homophobes are running the government and I saw no reason to argue with that.
