<p>Thread’s been down for a while, well its summer break now so I guess it cant be helped.</p>
<p>Just one little advice for now:
Its no secret that infos given by school’s reps arent reliable. So obviously its best to visit the campus first before choosing a school. However, most prospective students focus on asking current students they forgot the importance of asking the local residents.
This is particularly true for small town campuses, while you may think its unnecessary, many times these people know more about whats going on in their town than the students themselves. They’ll provide you with informations school reps dont give, like the truth about social life, how bad the weather can get, how nice or crappy the students are, whether its easy to find anything in town, etc. So go ahead and ask around. If the locals arent friendly to begin with, then its already a sign that life isnt that good there.</p>
