<p>MIT seems like a really awesome school, and I would definitely have no reservations attending. Like Erin’s Dad mentioned, however, it is definitely a reach - I am primarily looking for alternatives that I would be happy attending. Rice is also on my radar as well.</p>
<p>As far as OU and OSU are concerned, I am not so sure I would be happy attending. State-school syndrome? Maybe… It just seems to me that there are a lot of students there that do not share my passion for academics. I really want to go to a university with top notch academics and a student body that would push me to my limit.</p>
<p>Harvey Mudd definitely looks interesting! Can anyone comment on the quality of their financial aid?</p>
