@JackH2021 most likely not a chance! It’s interesting how my opinions of what is important in college have changed over the course of my 4 kiddos (on number 3/4 now with the twins). Things that are harder to get info on (like professor receptiveness) are far more important. Both of them will likely go to smaller schools, as did my older son (Colgate) for this exact reason. Additionally, I believe it is the reason smaller qualified LACs have better med/law school acceptance rates. LORs from professors that know you are essential and that is impossible to get at a large school, for the most part. I see Rose as the STEM version of a solid LAC. It obviously adds to quality of life during college too, but will work well for them for job searches and grad school if they go down that road.
