[quote=Anonymous]My 34 ACT, 3.9 UW student got into Edinburgh, St. Andrews, UCL, as well as top ranked US schools - although not Ivies, which were never a consideration because of cost. My DC chose St. Andrews over Edinburgh because it's ranked much higher (in the UK rankings), has a much, much better student satisfaction score, and felt like a community, which was important. Going to university with fancy people with lots of money wasn't a determining factor. Yes, there are rich Americans at St. Andrews, but also at most top-ranked US schools. And honestly, if US employers don't pay attention to universities outside of the top 20 US schools, they will be at a disadvantage when recruiting for an increasingly global workforce. [/quote]
