East Coast transplant

<p>My daughter from Virginia is considering Seattle U. Has anyone moved cross country to attend SU? Did you find it too dreary (weather wise)? What attracted you to Seattle (the city as well as the school)? She's considering the new Film major - if anyone knows anything about that please share.</p>

<p>My daughter is a freshman at SU. She is from Orange County, CA, so the weather is dramatically different from home. She loves it - had no issues with the weather (loved the snow they got 1 week!). She plays on the soccer team at SU. She is very happy with the friends she has made, the city, the college. I was worried she would have a rough time with the weather, but thank goodness, she loves it! Everyone is different though. They walk everywhere (downtown, Space Needle, etc). She won’t have a car all 4 years, but public transportation is great. Let me know if you have any other questions.</p>
