[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If he is dumb enough to prefer Miami for it's weather - I say go for it, make the change and open up a spot for some smarter and clearly more deserving kid to Harvard.[/quote] Harsh, but not totally inaccurate. OP's son is thinking very short term. [/quote] You're acting like Harvard makes the student, the reality is the students make Harvard what it is. If he is smart enough into Harvard he'll probably be fine doing whatever it is he'd like to do or go where he wants with or without Harvard. [/quote] The data supports this. Studies show that underprivileged, first gen students benefit the most from an Ivy League education. Smart UMC/UC students have the same outcomes, no matter where they go. OP’s kid should go where they will be happy and do well. [/quote]
