Jeff,

You in particular have no need to go to a top notch school. In fact, for you in particular, a top notch school is an opportunity cost, possibly for six digits a year.

You need a school and a curriculum where you can make B+'s while doing absolutely nothing. If you lived in Cali, I would recommend their community colleges because they're absolutely perfect for you/can get you into Berkeley two years from now if you're so inclined. Since you don't, look into similar type situations in the Northeast.

QFT. Jeff, go with your first instinct and say [censored] the ivys. You are going to school for...wait for it...the union card. After you graduate you are going to get jobs based on the fact that you are competent and a genius, but you just need the diploma to get a foot in the door. Spending huge dollars and huge amounts of time on an ivy diploma that is just a stepping stone would be a waste.
