Dartmouth Questions

Colleges and Universities A-Z Dartmouth College

<p>I was at Dartmouth for my second time this past weekend. I am heavily considering it for ED. I have a couple questions, though, and it would be great if anyone could answer them. </p>

<p>1) What would the social scene be like if I am not too much of a winter sports person (I am outgoing and all that...just not one for mountains and such)</p>

<p>2) What is the easiest way to get from Dartmouth to NYC?</p>

<p>3) What are the dorms like. Everyone I've asked says they are "fine," which I assume is code for a little subpar</p>

<p>4) How significant is the difference in acceptance between going ED and regular?</p>

<p>5) Are there ever any big concerts at Dartmouth?</p>

<p>6) Obviously the frats are the center of the social scene at Dartmouth, but does any of the social life take place in dorms?</p>

<p>7) What do people think of Jim Yong Kim</p>

<p>8) What is there in Hanover as far as restaurants for a college budget, movie theaters, and other places of note?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>1) Hang out on campus. There will be plenty of stuff going on, as always.</p>

<p>2) There’s a bus that runs from Dartmouth to NYC.</p>

<p>3) They’re above average. You can get rooms that are as nice as hotel rooms in McLaughlin or East Wheelock, or you can get slightly above average rooms in the Choates.</p>

<p>4) Significant. ED demonstrates interest.</p>

<p>5) Yes. Ke$ha will be here on Oct. 25.</p>

<p>6) Yes.</p>

<p>7) Everybody loves him. Seriously.</p>

<p>8) Restaurants in town: EBAs, Ramunto’s, Molly’s, Salt Hill Pub, Jewel of India, Yama, Lou’s, etc. There are plenty. There’s one movie theater: The Nugget. The Hop shows a lot of movies, though. For example, it screened The Social Network a few days before it was released. Others: there’s a bowling alley. </p>

<p>If you want the city life, I’d suggest hopping on a bus to Boston. My roommate went last weekend.</p>
