Hello everyone,
So I'd like to see what a parent's point of view is when their children are deciding where they will attend college. Let me draw out a scenario for you guys...
Your child has applied to every college they'd like to attend. You have some in-state options, out of state options, and some privates. For the out of state/private options, they are nationally viewed as having a better reputation for your child's intended major. Your child is given scholarship money (more from the private options), but not enough to lower tuition to be less/equal to the in-state options.
You know that the in-state options will give your child a sufficient education, it is financially ideal, and your child plans on attending graduate school. However, the out of state options and private options significantly out weigh the in-state option as far as academic prestige.
Okay, so long story short.... Is paying more in tuition worth sending your child to a better school IN YOUR OPINIONS (say your child doesn't have any say in the matter)?
I know that there are so many factors when considering where to attend, but generally speaking, what would you guys say?
