<p>My daughter received full scholarships including room & board from UTK and UAT. The issue is whether we should take this to save money for her graduate schools or professional schools, or pay her to Ivy Schools with full costs. I like to hear from everyone.</p>
<p>Never heard of UAT before now. I would certainly lean toward having her attend UTK to save for Grad School.</p>
<p>it is ranked 75 of National Universities</p>
<p>First off, she might not get into any of the Ivy schools, so the whole question may be moot.</p>

Your daughter might like to send her a PM for more personalized counsel.</p>
<p>Wishing you all the best.</p>
