[quote=Anonymous]Op, it is a very tough time. The kids really do not know much about the colleges (except that they are not getting into the top ones -- they get THAT message) then it looks like there are thousands of colleges to choose from, and where to start? But really, for most people, with a little thought, you realize that there are not thousands of colleges that meat your needs. For example, maybe you can't (like most people) afford the privates. That cuts it right down to the State colleges, of which there are a limited number. The kids look down on the State colleges because teens are natural snobs, so that leaves them thinking: where will I go that is cool? But in reality, most are going to State, or where their parents went. It is very stressful. If you are living at all comfortably in the DC area, you do not qualify for FA,[/quote]
