<p>I’m a sports fan, and while I know I’m going to be buried in work, I wouldn’t mind some time off to relax and have a good time, but in the end, that won’t be a deciding factor for me unless I’m trying to decide between two really similar universities. While I’m an avid Jets, Nets, and Devils fan, I never really cared much for college athletics, hell, I couldn’t care less about how well my own high school does in sports, since I’m not the one playing. Plus, I don’t really party in high school, and while I would be more inclined to in college, I ultimately have to focus on the long-run, so there is no way the party scene would influence my decision. If I cared about how big the parties are, I’d apply to Brigham Young in a heartbeat. Moreover, it would be nicer to have a smaller student body, where someone could distinguish himself more and the students are familiar with each other.</p>
<p>Edit: Yeah, I have considered those two colleges actually, and this list is only a first draft, so it’s bound to change. If I could, I’d apply to 20 colleges, but I can’t, so I’ll have to make some decisions on which reaches aren’t worth pursuing.</p>
