<p>bump. </p>
<p>so right now, I've narrowed it down to washU, NU, & Minn. my parents said that I have to make a decision soon (preferably within the next 24 hours?) so ANY extra/last-minute input is greatly appreciated =D...</p>
<p>northwestern is a name that will carry some weight</p>
<p>I would sign your SIR for Northwestern...and don't look back.</p>
<p>true. I made my first visit today and I liked it. My only concerns are that it is sooooo expensive (commuting is an option, except I'd rather not do it for the sake of my social life). Some of my friends also say that the kids there come off as pretentious, too, but I really can't tell.</p>
<p>^ I thought you said it will only cost you $2000/year over UIUC...that's nothing.</p>
