If you dont get into a brand name private school, go to your state school. If you dont get in there, go to community college. Private schools without a strong network are not worth the money.

This. I made that mistake during my first and half my second year of college. Went to an expensive (25k a semester) ass private school and it wasn't shyt in terms of academics nor social life. Just now transferring to a much bigger state school with better quality professors, resources and connections. All for about 10k a semester with housing and food included.
I would encourage Blacks to go to HBCU's especially the decent ones as you have a better chance of getting a job out of a HBCU than a good state school. Avoid crap schools regardless if it is a HBCU or not. Schools with a strong network should be at the top of any college students list. Of course the best networks are from the big time schools but that doesn't guarantee that network will include you as I seen with some of my friends from top tier schools.If you dont get into a brand name private school, go to your state school.
