<p>I think the OP implied that you can find a HAPPY college to go to at an ELITE school, meaning people who “suck” and says “Oh I can’t afford it!” are just making pathetic excuses. Seriously, can you really say that all the colleges in top 50 won’t make you happy at all? Not even one of them that you would choose over a second-third tier? Let’s face it: they say they can’t afford it or some other BS reason because they CAN’T GET IN.</p>
