Do any schools fit this criteria?

why suggest schools halfway across the country???



Because she didn’t use distance as a criteria, she used time from St Louis.

My D1 is in a school 900 miles away and it takes 4.5 hours door to door. My D2 wants to go to a school 300 miles away and it takes over 5 hours to drive there and about the same to fly since there are no direct flights. Which one is really “closer”?

A good school near an airport with direct service to St Louis is “closer” IMHO than anything else mentioned here.

Actually, it’s a $60 shuttle van ride from MSP to Carleton. That’s probably not too bad. 1 hour checkin, 1.5 hour flight, 1 hour van shuttle. Add a little for the drive to the airport and the connections, maybe it’s 4 hours.
