<p>Thank God. One fewer person to compete with :). Perhaps you should eliminate Chicago as well? It's just like Swarthmore.</p>
<p>I read about your financial aid package at Emory, mojojojo69, and thought it was generous.</p>
<p>lol you should have came up with some fake quote about how Chicago is awful with transfer aid. </p>
<p>I honestly don't know what to do. There's no doubt in my mind that I'd go to Wesleyan if accepted but I won't know until May. I really would prefer not to apply to Chicago but don't want to be left with NYU or WashU as my only options.</p>
<p>well, according to my friend who is a freshman at Chicago, everyone there is a big nerd who thinks that they can be cool because no one from their high school goes there...i think he told me that about 2 hott girls go there...lol</p>

<p>You forget my flagship, UT. I am well aware but ready to forego the benefits for a better education. ;)</p>
<p>WUSTL is a terrific option. You should be excited! I don't know if I'll apply to Chicago either. </p>
<p>Emilyanne, how awfully mean of your friend ;) I hear the school has an abnormally large population of a rare human breed, and that might be enough reason for me to give it a try, hah.</p>
<p>heh well WUSTL would be a terrific option, but I'd have to life off-campus. They can take that offer and shove it up thier prestigious anus.</p>
<p>On a more positive note, UChi guarantees housing and has some great options. I like residential colleges. They're kind of a big deal to me.</p>
<p>Maybe if I get a Loop Loft I'll give WashU a chance, but I'll have to be rejected by Wes first.</p>
<p>Living off-campus could be fun though! It would give you a greater feeling of independence. It's like you're in the real world, except you still have the resources of a university to fall back on.</p>
<p>lol...well good luck gianscolere. My friend absolutley loves it, even if they are a "rare breed" :)</p>
<p>gianscolere - I agree, it would be cool. But I'm a transfer student leaving a community college and his parents' house for the first time! I'll be going pretty far away too. I want some stability and to be part of a college community - that'll be tough if I go to WashU, though possible.</p>
<p>Emilyanne, did you know what I was referring to when I said "rare breed"? There might be some confusion here :)</p>
<p>I understand now. I guess living off-campus would also make it less convenient for you to access campus resources (it would be a pain to go to the library if you have to take the bus every time, etc.), but for me, the academic strength of the school would offset this concern.</p>
