<p>Hello all of you wonderful people!</p>
<p>I have been incredibly lucky and have been admitted into many amazing colleges. However, I am in love with all of these colleges and am having difficulty choosing where to go! I just wanted to hear your opinions on what you would do in my shoes and what you believe are the pros and cons of each college</p>
<p>List of colleges:
Cornell
University of Southern California as Presidential Scholar
University of Texas at Austin in Engineering Honors
Carnegie Mellon
Johns Hopkins
Vanderbilt
Northwestern</p>
<p>A little bit about myself:</p>
<p>I am planning on majoring in computer engineering/computer science while also doing something (minor?) in business. I have a lot of random interests especially in philosophy and psychology so it would be wonderful to have school that is flexible enough for me to take some classes for fun! My eventual goal is to get my Masters degree in engineering or MBA.</p>
<p>I have lived in Austin basically my entire life so I'm used to big cities and year around sunniness! I really wouldn't mind a change of pace but I just don't want to be bored totally stuck in the middle of no where with absolutely nothing to do. </p>
<p>I have a work hard, play hard mentality and I want to get involved in the campus! Sororities intrigue me, so I am planning to rush but I am not one of those people that HAS to be in a sorority. I might pledge. I might not. Knowing myself I will probably try every single club once and then decide what I like best and stick with that. I like sports as well as music and the arts.</p>
<p>Financially, I am getting full tuition at UT, and a range between 20k to 30k from each school per year. I am one of those middle class families that has enough money not to get very much aid, but isn't well off enough to pay for everything easily. I foresee huge loans in my future!</p>
<p>Study abroad is a must for me! I absolutely love traveling and exploring new cultures.</p>
<p>Gah. I have no idea what other information I should post. If you have any questions feel free to ask!</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for the advice!</p>
