Anybody Getting a Good Job with Distance Learning Degrees?
#16
AGS Wrote:your daughter probably would be accepted by some school out of the country like London School of Economics or Oxford....

which I wouldnt be surprised....


besides some of those foriegn british schools show more weight than harvard or yale combined with this new globalized society of the future...

I had read there were 3 prominent members of the British parliament that attended the London University Extension School ...which is the oldest distance education school in the world ....

harvard and yale are really "good ole boys" schools that cater to a specific class of people .... and accept a few people here and there.....so its like winning the lottery ...I am pretty disappointed because its not taking people out of merit but only from connection....

And if your dad is an alumni that gives the school big donations.....
chances are you will get in the school ..those are my guesses....

We never even considered out of the country. What a great thought. Although, she has pretty much decided on Amherst College, but I know she wants to study abroad one semester.

Based on the people that we have met that have gone to those schools (Princeton too) what you said seems to be true, there is often another person in their family that was an alumni.
