decisions between ucla and st. johns (NY)

<p>so i am deciding between UCLA and St. John's in new york. Can anyone give me some insight into st. johns? i know that most people will gravitate towards ucla but some information will be nice. thanks</p>

<p>I’ve gotten accepted into St. Johns, but I won’t be going there. I just don’t think it’s worth it. The only thing remarkable about it is that you get a free computer. Take UCLA.</p>

<p>That’s like comparing apples and oranges! I don’t even know if St. Johns has dorms, if they do it’s still mostly a regional school with kids from Queens attending and living at home with their parents. It may not still be the case but when I was younger St. John was often considered the next step for those kids who went to the local Catholic High Schools. I can’t compare it from an educational point of view but socially it’s about as different from UCLA as you can get!</p>
