For some people, class size doesn’t matter. For others, it does. It’s all about fit. I transferred from 50K Ohio State after my freshman year to the 3K University of Alaska Fairbanks. It made all the difference in the world to me. I was much more motivated and engaged in my classes at the latter. If I was screwing up at Ohio State - and I was, the professors didn’t care because I was one of 400 or 500 nameless faces in a lecture class. At Alaska, the professors all knew me and did care. If I was confused about something during a lecture, I wouldn’t have asked about it at an Ohio State lecture, whereas I would in an Alaska class.
