Absolutely this differentiator exists. At some colleges, students are required to get internships, professors follow up and grade them on it, and students spend time sharing resources, tips and success stories weekly. At others, it is hardly ever discussed, and while career services are available, if no one else is going weekly will your kid be the exception? So much easier when most others are focused on career outcomes as well. Some students dont need the extra push of peer influence, but it sure does help get them motivated in the right direction.
