By 'Prestige Colleges/Universities' it means well-known and well-respected. Think like Harvard University, very high prestige, everyone knows them and they have an amazing reputation! Now, for low prestige, you could think either local community colleges or maybe a college with a bad reputation for some reason or another.

Thanks, and who determines whether a college is prestigious or not?

repuation kind of along with aau membership are fairly good indicators but ive seen some that are a bit underrated

[🎤 AUTHOR]@schoonerfun5 years ago

Thanks, AAU? The only AAU I can think of is the Amateur Athletic Union. I assume you don't mean that?

That taught me to appreciate what https://salonpricelists.com/ people share so that I can reduce the pressure in life.

In addition, writing an essay is a vital part of any assignment. That’s why essay writing services are becoming more and more popular among students. As an illustrative writing teacher ( https://us.masterpapers.com/ ), my goals include creating, communicating, and offering pupils the ability to write.

Asking about their credentials and insurance protection will help you confirm that they are competent and covered in case of mishaps or damage during the installation procedure. https://www.lgcdecorators.co.uk/our-services/bathroom-fitting-bathroom-renovation/
