Thanks Val. All good points. My DD has been doing the legwork on local options but since this possibility was raised I am doing the prelim research. As we have discovered there are complex issues involved beyond choosing a course and a school and I need to know what those issues are. Once I have a handle on the options then DD will know what to look for. There are also issues that impact on the whole family such as cost and living zones which are factored in to everything. I have a little more time and access to resources such as this board so I am happy to get the early work done. I know she is quite capable of doing the research as she expressed interest in MIT last year and knew all about what was required.

It is interesting suevv that some Australian Unis are adopting the Honours college concept. I have looked at which Unis might offer such programs and the entry requirements.
