But check the current thread on the miserable young woman at Pepperdine who went there because it was cheap, and the dozens of other threads every year from kids or parents who made a “value” choice (which is great) without considering if the school or program or academic offerings were a fit… and then you have the underside of using price tag as the primary sorting device.

<p>Situations like this probably occur because when the student made the application list, s/he did not put much thought into choosing a safety that s/he actually liked. Then, when it became the only affordable choice in April, s/he attends and does not like it.</p>

<p>The safety is the most important school on the application list. Students should put as much as, or more, thought into selecting the safety as they put into selecting other schools for the application list.</p>
