<p>I'm sure many of us have started to visit schools. Which did you like? Which do you plan to apply to?</p>
<p>So far:
NYU - loved, plan to apply!
Vassar - meh... The campus and surrounding area is not so exciting.</p>
<p>Already Visited:
- University of Pennsylvania - Liked it but it was not for me (something did not click)
- Swarthmore - Loved it, plan to apply ED
- Haverford - Liked it, plan to apply RD (if rejected by Swarthmore)
- Bryn Mawr - Really liked the school, though not sure if I am okay with it being all girls, yet to decide if I will apply
- University of Pittsburgh - Too big, don’t want to be in 200 people intro classes, also did not feel new/exciting (but that is partially because I live one neighborhood away from the campus)
- Junita - Really liked it, plan to apply as a safety (again if I don’t get into Swarthmore ED)
- Penn State - Liked it more then I expected, but it was way too big</p>
<p>Visiting Later This Year
- Duquesne
- Muhlenberg
- Georgetown
- Dickinson
- Probably some combination of Kenyon, Denison, Oberlin and/or Allegheny</p>
<p>I’ve only visited UCSD and Stanford >.<</p>
<p>But I would like to visit Bowdoin, Colgate, Vanderbilt, Emory, JHU, Yale, Brown, and Wesleyan U sometime senior year.</p>
<p>I’ve visited Stanford and UCLA. LOVED the atmosphere and campus of Stanford, but something didn’t feel right about UCLA. This spring break I will be flying over to the east coast and visiting Duke, Yale, Columbia, Princeton, and Dartmouth.</p>
<p>I plan to apply to a lot of schools so I can increase my chances of at least getting into one top 20 school.</p>

<p>Visited MIT, Princeton, Cornell, Carnegie Mellon
Will visit Stanford, Harvey Mudd, Caltech</p>
<p>I’m so ready to be accepted, somewhere, I just need like a checkpoint. Like in a videogame, right now I feel like if I mess up I have to start all over.</p>
<p>I’ve visited HYPM + Brown + UVA; they were all great in different ways. I plan to apply to all of the aforementioned colleges plus Stanford, a few other Ivies, Duke, and maybe Chicago.</p>
<p>Visited:
Caltech
Stanford
UCI (lol)
USC
Suffice to say, I wasn’t particularly attracted to any of their campuses. Not even applying to the last two.</p>
<p>Visiting 100%:
MIT
Harvard
Berkeley</p>
<p>Applying but idk if visiting:
Princeton
Cornell
Columbia
Harvey Mudd
UCLA
UCSD
UC Reject (seriously, I want to get rejected so bad)</p>
<p>Visited Columbia, NYU, and Fordham. I am planning to visit Cornell sometime during winter break.</p>
<p>I’m only a sophomore but I might graduate next year… UNC is probably a safety/match of mine, it’s the only one ill definitely be able to afford, it’s instate, and it’s a great college. Then the only other schools I’m interested in are high reaches : brown, Yale, Princeton, MIT… I haven’t found any other matches or safeties that I’m really interested in…</p>
<p>I’ve been to San Jose State, San Francisco State, USF, and driven through Cal Poly SLO and UC Santa Cruz. The only one I plan on applying to is SLO, in addition to some UCs (probably Cal, UCLA, UC Davis, and UC Irvine) and maybe USC. I would like to go out of state, but it’ll probably be too expensive, and the schools I could possibly get scholarships to aren’t in the most attractive of areas.</p>
<p>I’m so jealous of you guys for having enough money to visit colleges 
I’ve only been to UMD and absolutely dislike the campus there.</p>
<p>American Schools:
Visited- RIT, unofficially because I know people who work and study there. It’s…all right, but I’d be disappointed if I attended. It has very little in the way of biological research and the location, within the city itself is pretty lame unless you have a car. I like the city and wouldn’t mind moving back as an adult to work there but I’d rather not go to college there.
U of R- does the medical school count? 
I know people in the 8 year med program and lots of kids from my old HS attend. The medical center is really nice and I’d love to be on faculty there, provided they’re willing to take me! </p>
<p>1) I’ve visited 3 Canadian schools, but I mainly went there for business purposes, not to actually visit visit. One school was really small and cute but it really has nothing going on (state university of a tiny province) that interests me.
2) The second school I went just to use the library but it’s a) in the place that gets the most snow in NA a year! and b) not really enthralled with their facilities.
3)The last school I know more intimately since I’ve done lots of things on campus and because my HS is extremely close to it. It’s…okay, I guess. I know both faculty and students from there. The facilities for what I’m interested in are good but I strongly dislike the city I live in and would hate taking classes on campus. I generally don’t like the Canadian system because it doesn’t allow for much exploration of ideas. Also, I know a ton of kids who go there and while they’re great, they’re not exactly people I’m great friends with.</p>
<p>I actually don’t know what I want. I just want to be happy and successful! I’ve never had much choice in things like schools and whatnot, so it’s kind of new to me.</p>
<p>The only college I’ve ever been to is Hunter College with my high school to use their (tremendous) gym.
And those STAIRS… just killed the place for me (even though I hate athletics and will probably never even use the gym).
My parents aren’t big college-visit types- where you go you go and you’ll find out more when you get there. We actually were in Ithaca this summer for random reasons and I was DYING to peek into Cornell but no sirree bob.</p>
<p>I’ve only visited Clemson and FMU, but I really loved FMU when I was there for SCPSI, so I’ll apply there and I’m pretty sure I’ll get in.</p>
<p>@pleiotropy I don’t, but I have found ways to visit. My school offers trips to visit 2-3 colleges in one day for $10, so I did that. For the Philadelphia and DC schools I visited/am visiting when I am already in the area. The few middle of nowhere LACs that are in Ohio/Pennsylvania I am driving to and back the same day with my family.</p>
<p>So far, I’ve visited:</p>
<p>Columbia
NYU
Dartmouth
BC
BU
Clemson</p>
<p>In the next year, I want to visit UF, U South Carolina, Cornell, CMU and Princeton. </p>
<p>Of those, I’ll most likely be applying to BC, UF, Cornell, CMU, Clemson, USC and a few others.</p>
