I agree it seems late in the game to be bragging about where you got accepted. Perhaps it is like the frustrated old athlete reliving his/her youth through which scholarships their kids get?

Sometimes I wish we didn’t even have a ranking system for colleges. Just give me a fully accredited college that has a strong history of educating and placing its graduates into society and careers and let the kids pick the one they like the best.
