Choosing
the right college

Dear Dr. Linda,

We’re in a situation we STRONG
never expected to be in. It’s a LEARNING
good one, so I’m not com-
DR. LINDA
plaining, but our daughter SILBERT
has no idea what she should

do and we’re not too sure

either.

Here’s the problem:

She was accepted to all the colleges she applied to. Plus, the

private schools are giving her nice-sized scholarships, so we’re

ending up spending less money than we would pay for the

state schools. Here’s the list: Boston University, University of

Vermont, University of Rochester, American University, Stony

Brook, Tufts, NYU and Bu alo. I know you don’t know her,

but just curious if you have a preference.

Abby

Dr. Abby,
You certainly do have a good problem. And since none of us

has a crystal ball, it’s hard to make a decision. But, for begin-
ners, obviously she was also accepted to her “reach” schools. To
some, once you’re accepted to your reach school, the decision is
made. To them, the higher level the school, the more success in
the future. In some cases, they’re right, but not always.

Years ago, I had a student who was given a full four-year
scholarship to a top-tier school. But she wanted to go to a
particular Ivy League school to which she was also accepted.

e problem was that the latter had o ered no nancial help.
However, she wanted it so badly that her parents gave in and
that’s where she went.

Today, she’s a science teacher in a public school. ere is
nothing wrong with being a science teacher, but did she need
an Ivy League school to be hired? ere was another student
who was accepted to MIT, but the parents couldn’t a ord
it, so he went to a state school. He’s an engineer now in an
outstanding rm. Again, would he have been o ered a higher-
level position if he had gone to MIT? I don’t think so. e
examples go on and on.

e particular college you go to or how you receive a degree
should be considered in light of your longer-term goals. If you
want to be a laywer in a big rm on Wall Street, the name of
the schools you graduated from probably make a big di er-
ence. If you want to teach in a public school, probably not so
much.

So, how do you decide? It all boils down to your values and
goals. Here’s some things to consider when making your deci-
sion.

• Where do you want to live for four years?
• What size school do you want to go to?
• Do you want to be in a school with a great football team?
Do you love school spirit, could you not care less about that?
• Does the school have an opportunity to study abroad?
• What type of housing exists?
• Do you want to live closer to home?
• Does the school have the majors in which you may be
interested?
• Who’s teaching the course? A professor or a TA?
• What is the student: teacher ratio?
• Does it provide career counseling services?
• What is the course availability?
• Do you want a school with sororities and fraternities?
• Does it have a religious a liation?
Most things in life are not set in stone; college is one of
those things. You can always transfer if you make a wrong
decision.
