Why did your kid turn down a clearly higher ranked college?

I swear to you Im not Kidding. A girl in my highschool turned down a FULL RIDE to Yale, she had some outside scholarship, to attend a small college in Montana!!! Reason: The school in Montana would let her keep her horse on campus.

<p>I call “BS”: Kids with horses, trailers, and rigs to transport them for equestrian events don’t get full-rides to Yale or any other selective schools that offer mainly need-based scholarships.</p>
