[quote=Anonymous]As someone who went to college in the 90s, the reality of current college admissions hit me the same way the reality of housing costs hit me when I moved here. We initially bought a condo instead of a SFH and we learned high stats can get make Penn State a target instead of Penn. We wanted out kid to go to a top 25 school, but that's just b/c we thought they should. Then, we actually asked our kid what they wanted and a lot of schools were scrapped off the list b/c of distance or weather. If UNC is the highest ranked school where they send an application, we are OK with it. If they wanted to go to school in Mass, NJ, NY, CT, ME, etc, we'd support them, but that's not where they want to spend their 4 years after high school. [/quote]
