<p>I want a school where I will be happy.</p>

<p>I’m a guy from FL.</p>

4

<p>Would you be interested in going to school in California?</p>

5

<p>Brown may be a reach (for nearly anyone), but it’s a fun place.</p>

6

<p>ok man </p>

<p>First of all</p>

<p>You can choose to be happy at any time.
Let me repeat that
You can choose to be happy at any time.</p>

<p>Actually there are a lot of Florida schools that meet your (generic) criteria</p>

7

<p>USC sounds like you.</p>

<p>Think I have much of a shot at getting in USC?</p>

10

<p>“I enjoy music (jam bands, indie, I like it all) , sun and fun, sports, partying, and the arts to name a few things.”</p>

<p>Considering that you are from FL, I would be shocked if I were the first person to recommend UGA.</p>

11

<p>UF or FSU…</p>

12

<p>Come to Clemson University on a Friday and you will see for yourself the immense pride students have in their school, we all love Clemson</p>

13

<p>UGA seems awesome but is it super super conservative?</p>

<p>I really didn’t like UF, FSU seemed ok.</p>

14

<p>No, UGA is not super super conservative. Overall, the student body is politically moderate. There is a significant presence of uber-conservatives, but there is an equally significant presence of uber-liberals. You will find extremists of both ends of the political spectrum, but most students fall somewhere in the middle.</p>

<p>And Athens the town is very liberal.</p>

15

<p>I think UGA would be a great fit for you, I assume you know about the music scene in Athens is awesome, the weather is great and there is plenty of Greek Life, sports and parties in addition to amazing academics.</p>

16

<p>So, for you… Happiness isn’t a virtue, but a necessity? </p>

<p>USC might be hard to get in for you, but that’s the first school I thought of.
Try looking at in-state schools, but I don’t really know that much about FL’s schools.</p>

17

<p>I think you could get into USC. No guarantees, but you’re in the range.</p>

18

<p>Ya I know about Athens, Widespread and Neutral Milk Hotel both started there!</p>

<p>So the town is liberal eh? Sort of like Savanah or what?</p>

<p>Ya I’m starting to think I’d love it there. Any other suggestions?</p>

19

<p>Don’t forget about Of Montreal, REM, and the B52s. Athens is one of the best music scenes in the whole country.</p>

<p>Yes, the town itself is very liberal. Lots of hippie/townie/hipster type people - lots of bars, tattoo places, cool restaurants. It has more of an indie vibe than Savannah.</p>

<p>If you have any specific questions about Athens or UGA, feel free to PM me.</p>
