<p>Probably Harvard because it IS Harvard. And Bostons nice too. But if I had the courage to throw that away it would be Dartmouth. Although if I were a Harvard caliber student, Oxford would certainly be an interesting experience.</p>
<p>I know absolutely nothing about any of the Ivys, as I have zero chance of getting into any of them and haven’t looked on any of the websites, but I would choose Columbia because it is in NYC and I love New York so much! I also feel like its a perfect city to get an internship in either a political science field (possible major) and definitely art history (possible minor for me).</p>
<p>^^ ive thought about applying to Cambridge but then I start thinking about the insane tuition rates, adjusting to the time zone and culture in the same weeks that I have to decide what want to do with the rest of my life. And think, huh, saving money at a CCC and then going to uc Berkeley or almost preferably UCLA sounds good :/. </p>

<p>Brown. I’ve always had a weird fascination with Rhode Island, I’ve heard only great things about its student life and culture, and I want to do art so the RISD connection is great.</p>
<p>Though I’d rather go to WUSTL still :)</p>
<p>Princeton! I’m obviously pretty biased, but I’ll give my reasons. Princeton is your quintessential liberal arts research university in a small college town. If you’ve ever been to campus, you’ve fallen in love with it. It’s not Boston or New York, where everybody’s all hustling around busy-like. But the biggest reason is because of its undergraduate focus. It only has one “Graduate School,” so professors devote a lot more of their time to undergrads, giving them research opportunities that can’t be had elsewhere.
However, some say that Princeton isn’t as well known as Harvard. Well, Harvard is famous mainly because of its Medical, Law, and Business Schools. Graduate schools contribute to a school’s renown. Because Princeton only has a “Graduate School,” it’s at a little of a disadvantage. Also because Harvard devotes a lot of its resources to its graduate schools, undergraduates get pushed to the side a little and it’s just not like Princeton. Now, I’m sure others will have differing opinions, but here is mine and I’m standing by it. Go Tigers!</p>
<p>As a business major, it would definitely be Wharton at UPenn. Great school & a fun social life.</p>
<p>Columbia, because how on earth can you beat New York City? So much opportunity at your fingertips, if only you’re willing to work for it.</p>

<p>Why is no one talking about Cornell?</p>
<p>Brown! Best school for undergrad. The atmosphere is absolutely chill, relaxed, and fun. Like what many said here, it’s the most down-to-earth school, and that should be very important. People there are very nice, unlike the pretentious people you might find at other Ivies. (I’m not saying that Brown doesn’t have pretentious people, but there’s not as much compared to its rivals.) It’s a research university with a liberal arts college feeling, so you get the best of both worlds.</p>
<p>And then there’s the Open Curriculum. Students are treated like mature and responsible adults who can pave their own paths. Students have the most power in deciding how their college experiences will go. Providence is also a fun, cultural, and artsy city. And it’s not very far away from New York and Boston.</p>
<p>UPenn because of Wharton and its in Philly</p>
<p>Harvard. Go big or go home.</p>
<p>Brown. It’s got a fantastic geology program, located right next to a city, and super liberal. Plus from all the videos I’ve seen of Brown, most of their students have the hipster look going on, and I think that’s really hot.</p>

<p>Yes, I already posted.</p>
<p>Princeton. I love how it’s steeped in tradition, from the eating clubs to making an appearance in Fitzgerald’s “This Side of Paradise.” I love how the campus is near NYC, but at the same, is located in a quintessential small town. It seems like a serious university – truly work hard, but also play hard. It’s competitive, but it can weed out people pretty quickly. Not necessarily a good thing, but it can push you.</p>
<p>Harvard because it houses the cognitive scientists who inspired me to follow in their tracks.</p>
<p>Princeton because it’s the all-around best undergraduate school in the nation.</p>
<p>Brown because it’s intellectual climate and fashion sense makes it seem so forward-moving</p>
<p>Kind of want to say Princeton but I don’t think I could turn down Harvard.</p>
