<p>There's a chance that I may attend University of Chicago but there just one thing every guy needs to know: how are the chicks at UofC? By the way, I haven't had the chance to visit. Also, anyone know how UofC girls compare to UMich, UCLA, and UVa? I got accepted to all these school so I having trouble deciding. </p>
<p>Although it appear as if I am making my college choice by how the girls are like, I really am not. It's just a plus if the girls are hot. Thanks.</p>
<p>Seriously? Really? I mean there are THOUSANDS of WOMEN at these colleges. How can anyone possibly generalize? Further, how can anyone else know what you consider "hot"?</p>
<p>Why don't you decribe your penultimate "hot girl" and then all the young women who have been admitted can look in the mirror and decide if they qualify and all the guys already attending can give you their opinion of those already attending?</p>
<p>I mean...do you like tall, leggy blonds? Dark eyes and busty? Thick glasses, knee socks and granny panties? Are you a Team Aniston or Team Jolie?</p>
<p>Inquiring minds want to know and since some of the best are going to Chicago they are SURE to give you thoughtful advice.</p>
<p>Alright I don't mean to offend anyone but I think I am entitled to get some idea of what the girls are like. Furthermore, I think you are over reacting a little bit. I have asked this question on other college threads and have gotten nice replies. You have no right to tell me leave this forum. I bet I am not the only person on this Chicago forum that wants to know so I think you should just leave my thread if you don't want to hear any of this. If I got into your BELOVED Chicago then I think I am intelligent enough for this school.</p>
<p>To everyone else, I don't mean to offend anyone I just want to get some opinions.</p>
<p>um, see, the thing about chicago is that you don't go for the girls.</p>
<p>now that you mention it, there aren't many selective colleges that you go to for the girls.</p>
<p>And if you are looking for an answer, I think the fact that you have received naught but objecting replies may give you your answer. See, smart, empowered women don't like to be categorised and objectified.</p>
<p>Wow, let the guy ask his question. It's a legitimate concern.</p>
<p>For me, my high school had a higher % of "hotties" than UChicago does, but that certainly doesn't mean there aren't good looking girls here. You're not going to find UChicago on any lists for best looking students, but, as Jamie alluded to, with thousands of students here I'm sure you will find a reasonable number that match whatever standards you have. Whether they'll be as intrigued with you, now, is another question altogether :D</p>
<p>I don't mean leave the thread...I actually think it is a bit comical that this appears to be a main concern of yours. I meant, CHOOSE ANOTHER SCHOOL.</p>
<p>Maybe you should ask: where are the stupid girls? or where are the guys really terrible so I might be more appealing?</p>
<p>Bright and brainy aren't mutually exclusive. You will find lovely, intelligent, interesting women anywhere. Attraction is totally subjective. </p>
<p>You might do better finding girls in college (just a tip) if you act interested in the BRAINS.</p>
<p>why is everyone giving the op a hard time? i'm a girl and i got into chicago also and one of my concerns is also the "guys". i mean, why not? of course, it's never my number one priority, but this IS college. </p>
<p>from what i've heard, on the whole chicago girls are probably not as "hott" as ucla girls. i was accepted to ucla and michigan also, but i think if i were you id still go to chicago. it's hands down the best school on your list. </p>
<p>i also think it really depends on what you consider "hott" and attractive. if your definition of hott is tall, busty, blonde, average intelligence--then no, you won't find too much of that at chicago. but if you're definition of hott is maybe exotic, intelligent, friendly girl--then i'm sure you'll find that. but i think it's not just chicago that's like that--i think many top schools like yale, harvard, princeton, duke, etc would also be like that. frankly, i think even when meeting girls in the real world as you get older...i think your definition of "hott" might change.</p>
<p>anyway, who knows. good luck with your search.</p>
<p>I visited last year for a couple of days so maybe I can help a bit more. Overall, the student body is probably not as attractive as UCLA, UVA, or any large public for that matter. However, there were quite a few pretty and beautiful girls, but I didn't see any girls that would look like your typical Tri-Delta or ADPi from a state school. With that said, I thought the student was more than friendly, I had even some students come sit with my and I at one of the dining halls and talked about the schools. I do not think many students, no matter how physically attractive, are judgmental about other people's looks, unlike some schools you might see. I did think a good number of girls had the cute "geeky" look. Overall, UChicago did not have the most attractive student body, but it wasn't like it would horrible to go there. Also, I noticed that the gym facilities were well used, and that many girls were pretty fit. Hopefully that helps, I didn't really focus my visit on the student's looks but I guess this can help you get a feel for it.</p>
<p>OP: Your usage of the term "chicks" to describe presumably intelligent women might be what's off-putting.</p>
<p>That said, I'm not someone who takes into account the attractiveness of the student body in making choices, so I guess your mindset would be perplexing to me no matter what terminology you used.</p>
<p>I think the op and others interested do care about brains, but intelligence can be assumed to exist given the standards of the school--or maybe this is a naive/hopeful assumption?</p>
<p>the op has the impression that the girls are them for him to do the choosing. at places like UChicago, women don't take to that kindly.<br>
it looks like someone isn't used to being told 'no'</p>
<p>Haha, of course I care about academics. That's why I applied to UofC in the first place and stated that if the girls were good looking, it would be a plus. Also I want to apologize to Jaimecakes; looking back now, the way I phrase my question was probably not the best. So yeah, thanks for all the help you guy/girls.</p>
<p><em>calls off the cavalry</em>
everything will be alright, guys. a guy asking about the girls at a college is completely normal and does not in any way mean that said guy is shallow, superficial, and should not come to the school. move on, nothing to see here...</p>
<p>okay, time for some fallacious analysis here. Let's assume that we have two large sets of people, guys and gals. Within each is a smaller subset , hot gals and hot guys. </p>
<p>I think that its safe to assume that at more selective schools, the subsets of hot guys and hot gals will comprise a smaller proportion than at larger schools.</p>
<p>Regardless, of the school, however, the subsets of hot guys and hot gals will co-mingle at equal rates. Hot recognizes hot and there the twain shall assuredly meet, early and often.</p>
<p>The key question is, what are the chances for someone outside the hot subset of dating someone from within the hot subset?</p>
<p>For someone who is not "hot" (which is most of us, unfortunately), are our chances of dating someone who is hot better or worse at a more selective school with its smaller ratio of hot/not hot student body?</p>
<p>Or indeed, is this ratio independent of school selectivity?</p>
<p>I would conjecture that the ratio is indeed dependent on selectivity and that for someone who is not hot, the chances of dating someone who is hot, are greater at a more selective school.</p>
<p>I should cite the Ladder Theory for a lot of this so here it is:</p>
<p>Yeah, some people on this thread are maybe overreacting a bit. </p>
<p>I (being a male candidate who was also admitted to U of Chicago) have also thought about this particular topic. However, my main concerns deal not so much with the girls at U Chicago, but rather with the general party scene found at this university. I really like to party every weekend. I am an international student and have lived for the past year in Germany where I had the chance to travel around Europe and really soak up the social scene over here. I am definitely a work hard, play hard individual, and sports make for a big part of my life also. According to what I have read on threads, reviews, etc, I feel that U of Chicago is not really a "fit school" for me, but academically, its the best school I got admitted into. I am really set on studying Econ, (have been for a long time) so in this sense, Chicago is in fact a fit for me.</p>
<p>I truly would love to have a college experience involving great academics and a cool party scene as well. I would love to play soccer in an intramural league. I would love to have a group of friends with whom i could hit the clubs at Chicago every Friday. I would love to become a part of a fraternity and organize cool parties for others. And I would love to submerge myself into a great learning community like Chicago all the while. Can Chicago be a fit for me? I am a very adaptable person and have never had trouble coping with the new.</p>
