1 PRIVATE COLLEGES Presented by Wendy Biggs and Daniel Cekay
2 SOUND FAMILIAR? My boss s niece s best friend s cousin went there and she said it was a good (or bad) school. We can t afford private schools
3 COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY Why are some schools called college and others referred to as a university? Universities are comprised of a group of colleges and have graduate programs. Colleges of Business Media Education Engineering General Studies Fine and Applied Arts Applied Health Sciences Liberal Arts and Sciences Agriculture, Consumer, and Environmental Sciences
4 ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NOT LIKE THE OTHERS Though all have similar names, which of the following schools has a very different philosophy from its counterparts on the religious component to its educational requirements? A. Illinois Wesleyan B. Iowa Wesleyan C. Indiana Wesleyan D. Ohio Wesleyan A) Though originally founded in the Wesleyan tradition, Illinois Wesleyan has moved away from its religious roots and adopted a more general Liberal Arts curriculum.
5 SO YOU SAY YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE Colorado College (not University of ) and Cornell College (also, not University) are the only two institutions that require that you do this when choosing your classes? Answer: Only pick one According to Cornell students, You can do anything for 18 days!
6 PRIVATE SCHOOLS MOST OFTEN APPLIED TO BY WHEATON NORTH STUDENTS Marquette University Taylor University DePaul University Wheaton College North Central College Carthage College Augustana College Bradley University Loyola University Butler University Northwestern University Hope College Indiana Wesleyan University Illinois Wesleyan University Elmhurst College Calvin College Washington University (St. Louis) North Park University University of Chicago Lewis University
7 APPLICATIONS The Holistic approach Not just a mathematical equation, but still starts with strength of schedule, GPA, and ACT (but not always) Essays Resume of activities, involvements, and work experiences Letters of recommendation Interviews Visits Demonstrated interest Legacy not keep them OUT **REMEMBER** Colleges are looking for ways to get students IN,
8 SIZE MATTERS Colleges range in size from 20 students to 50,000 students. Big difference between attending a small school (under 3,000), usually referred to as a college. And attending a large school (3,000-50,000) usually referred to as a university Augustana College North Central College Illinois Wesleyan U North Park University Knox College Monmouth College Beloit College Lawrence University Bradley University Butler University Creighton University Drake University Millikin University Carthage College 7500 Marquette University Depaul University Northewestern University Loyola University University of Chicago Washington University (St. Louis)
9 FINDING THE RIGHT PAIR OF PANTS WHAT SIZE IS RIGHT FOR YOU? Small schools offer More personal involvement Community atmosphere (including faculty) Smaller classes (from 5-50 students) Faculty focused on teaching undergraduates, not conducting research Direct instruction by faculty, not graduate students Usually a higher price tag. *Do not discount small schools because of price when conducting your initial search. Large schools offer Class sizes anywhere from students Tend to be more impersonal Allow more anonymity and learning of independent living skills Tend to be less expensive Offer the college experience Carry a bigger name
10 THE LIBERAL ARTS COLLEGE Focuses on creating a well-rounded student Broad education study literature, languages, and the natural and social sciences Requires a more complex list of general education requirements which may include religious study Smaller number of requirements in each major with a lot of overlap allows for multiple majors and/or minors Unique schedule of academic terms (trimesters with J-terms, etc.) Higher rates for admission to graduate and professional school programs What do you want your student to be able to do when s/he graduates? Get a job in a specific field Have a diverse array of options including going on to graduate school
11 CCCU Council for Christian Colleges and Universities College fair at Calvary Church in Naperville offered every October What does Christian mean on campus? Class requirements Chapel attendance Pledge or code of conduct CHRISTIAN COLLEGES
12 SELECTIVE COLLEGES IN THE MIDWEST Selective Colleges require elite credentials and may only admit 20-30% of their applicants. ACT Averages are typically in the range Have the highest placement rates for graduate school Merit scholarships are typically not available Recommend that students take the most rigorous coursework available to them while in high school Knox College Grinnell College Carleton College Hillsdale College McAllister College Notre Dame University Lawrence University Northwestern University Kenyon College University of Chicago Washington University Illinois Institute of Technology Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology
13 HIGHLY SELECTIVE COLLEGE NIGHT- DEC 11 TH IVY LEAGUE SCHOOLS Accepted students are primarily from the top10% of the class. Test scores are also in the top 10% range. Typically admit fewer than 20% of applicants; can be even below 10% Harvard 5.8%, Yale 6.7%, MIT 8.2%, Stanford 5.69% 80% of applicants meet the admission requirements but only 20% are accepted. The difference between being lucky and unlucky.
14 UNDERSTANDING YOUR VALUES WHY ARE WE SENDING OUR SON/DAUGHTER TO COLLEGE? Get a good job when s/he graduates Go live anywhere but here!
15 FINAL CONSIDERATIONS Student Will I feel closed in and trapped at a small school, or will I feel lost and overwhelmed at a large school? Parent Is my student ready to go away to college (academically, emotionally, etc.), and am I ready for him/her to leave? Family How far from home is too far (or too close)? What is our backup plan if the financial aid does not work out the way we had hoped? What do we get for the extra cost of a private or out of state school, and is it worth it?
