[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC kid from a small private got into a great flagships for next year and couldn’t be more excited. [b]Not sure what OP’s issue is.[/quote][/b] Could be unfamiliarity what some flagships offer today. UVA, for example, is much smaller than UCLA, Cal, Wisconsin, Michigan. My humanities kid had only small seminars at UVA from second year on. We had the same major so I read his syllabi. He got a far better education, more contacts with professors, better LORs, etc than I did out of my SLAC and with MUCH greater opportunities because of the varied experiences a flagship can offer. UVA is $40k instate. My SLAC is now ridiculous $96k.[/quote]
