I made a mistake. It was Northwestern.Madvillain wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 8:18 amTurning down a full ride at UVA to take on debt for Northeastern is truly insane especially given than UVA is a better school. Maybe she was considering Northwestern? I can see turning down UVA for NW but even still...KlangFool wrote: ↑Sun Feb 17, 2019 10:13 am Folks,
There is another problem that is not mentioned in this thread yet: student loan.
My peer's daughter is a National Merit Finalist. She had a full-ride scholarship to UVA. But, she wants to go to Northeastern? Instead. So, instead of a fully-paid Bachelor degree, the parent (my peer) have to take a student loan to finance her bachelor degree. My peer has a bigger and more expensive house too. And, he has 2 more kids going to college in a few years. He is stressed out every day due to the regular laid off. He told me that he cannot tell his daughter that he cannot afford to send her to Northeastern.
