[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pitzer doesn't need to give merit aid because Pitzer is much more desirable than Occidental (35% vs 17% yield).[/quote]

Pitzer is a pay to play school. The kids are disinterested losers, wealthy, will do fine in life, but losers, if that's not what your kid is looking for, keep looking. -DP[/quote]

Bless your heart.

Meanwhile, in the real world, my kid chose Pitzer because of the focus on environmental studies, majored in that (“Environmental analysis” at Pitzer) and got into 6 of 7 top 10 grad schools he applied to.  [/quote]

But you’re full pay, and one day you’ll help him buy the house he’ll never be able to afford. Pitzer is a good school, and small schools over-perform in grad placement, but Pitzer targets wealthy families, unlike Pomona.[/quote]

So weird on this forum how people just make up stories about other posters to support their ideas rather then forming ideas based on actual, real-world facts.

Well the issue is your view requires nuance which DCUM hates. Oxy has some excellent professors and some departments are much better there than the 5Cs. They also have great funding for students to explore careers[/quote]

Much better? Name one. [/quote]
