As both a college planning professional and mom of a teen, Paige has the inside scoop. Always.
Winter break and movie watching seem to go hand-in-hand. While you could cue up Elf for the 3rd time this week, or watch all of the Harry Potter movies…again…why not check out these fine films to get a sense of what college life is “really” like?
We know this is no substitute for a campus tour, but perhaps a glimpse of what your future holds.*
Paige’s recommendations:
Accepted
Back to School
Damsels in Distress
Drumline
Horse Feathers
Legally Blonde
Life of the Party
Mona Lisa Smile
Monsters U
PCU
Pitch Perfect
Real Genius
Rudy
Starter for 10
Sydney White
The House Bunny
The Social Network
The Waterboy
There were several other contenders, but these were the PG-13 and below options.
Got a favorite we didn’t mention? Please share in the comments.
Happy watching!
