<p>I got curious about how many kids from son’s school went to LAC vs Large U. His school (Cate) is on the small side, with 265 students. Looking at matriculation data from last 5 years, about 35% went to an LAC. </p>
<p>Then, I thought I would compare this to a large BS. Looking at Exeter matriculation data from 2010-2012, approximately 26% went to an LAC. </p>
<p>From my small data set, seems like kids starting at a smaller school to begin with are somewhat more likely to go to an LAC for college. But the trend at both is definitely to head to a larger school.</p>
