Can't Decice Where to Go...

<p>I applied to a bunch of schools not knowing what my chances where. I ended up getting accepted to 9 or them. I know I will by happy and any of the schools but I still can't make a decision. At this point I don't know what I want to major in. I definitely want to study abroad though. That's about all I know at this point in time. Any advice?</p>

<p>Pitzer- I didn't feel too strongly about Pitzer when I visited. I'm not sure if it is a place where I could fit in. However I really liked Claremont and the Consortium. </p>

<p>Scripps- I really liked Scripps, but I was wait listed. </p>

<p>Occidental- Oxy was the only school I didn't spend the night at. My stay was only very brief and I don't know much about it. I have heard it is a commuter school though. </p>

<p>Whitman- I am flying out to interview for a scholarship next week. While this is inciting, when I visited Whitman it did have strong feelings either way. Also Whitman is in the middle of nowhere.</p>

<p>Macalester- I loved my stay at Macalester, however, If I do go there I would feel obligated to run cross country and track. The coach has been so nice to me and very helpful. At this point though, I am not sure If I want to run in college. Also I am not sure if I am a city girl(I'm form Maui)</p>

<p>Colby- Although the academics are comparable at all of these schools, I am thinking that Colby is the most prestigious. I thought the schools was okay when I visited. But for some reason Colby remains high on my list. Colby is in the middle of nowhere which is a con. </p>

<p>I am also questioning the weather at some of these schools(mainly Macalester and Colby). Being from Hawaii, I am thinking that perhaps California is the place to go. </p>

<p>Any input is greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>Well you could challenge yourself and head to the MW. I think however you should seriously consider Pitzer if you liked the consortium. The campuses are pretty interlinked. Oxy is kind of a commuter school as are most LA schools (even UCLA to a certain extent.) BTW, do not feel “obligated” to run track. </p>

<p>Academically they are all pretty even, personally I would choose between Colby, Macalester and Pitzer. Although at Macalester you will get a city to go with your cold weather so it might be a compromise.</p>
