[QUOTE="IanKEvans2, post: 1345206, member: 12945"] I, too, agree with the previous comments. Granted, I do not have a child going through school, as I am [I]the [/I] child going through school myself, but I will advocate for the smaller schools, particularly when the [I]fit[/I] is right. I went to a smaller university for undergrad (University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point) with the intention going in to pursue at minimum a graduate degree within the field of counseling. Because of the small environment at UWSP, I was able to stand out within my department, as I was involved in several student organizations and research projects. Following graduation I received several offers for enrollment in masters programs, and later received a full-ride scholarship for my doctoral studies in Counseling Psychology. Long story short, from my perspective, the college experience is just as much about fit as it is about personal goals (both short-term and long-term). [/QUOTE]
