I’ve recently been accepted to both universities, and I’m in desperate need of any advice someone can provide with experience from either university. I’m interested in engineering and a career in aerospace.
I’ve visited the Rice campus for a diversity fly-in and an interview, and I loved the campus and the environment. I won’t be able to see what it’s like at Stanford and whether I like it or not, which makes me nervous. If anybody can speak to it, I’d appreciate it.
I never considered Stanford as much because I truly thought I would get rejected. I never thought I’d have to make a decision between two dream schools, and of course I’m incredibly grateful, but I want to make sure I make the right decision. Stanford would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for me, and I feel like I might resent myself for letting it go. At the same time, I also fell in love with Rice.
I’d really appreciate any insight or advice you all could give me. For reference, finances are pretty much the same for both universities. Also, I haven’t used College Confidential that often, so if I’ve put this in the wrong place, please let me know!
