<p>yeah it would be nice but my ACT score is good enough to get quite a bit of money at any of these places so it wouldnt be a huge money difference… i just dont know if the less money would be worth the name or quality of other places…and the proximity to minnepolis/st.paul would be a plus.</p>
<p>OP - ignore informative. The kid is pretty consistent in giving poor advice.</p>
<p>Gustavus is a great school and many have heard of it (at least in California). I like their tie in with the Nobel organization. Lively campus and as I recall it is a little over an hour to drive into the twin cities area. We have toured Gustavus a couple of times and it seems like there is always something to do for the students.</p>
<p>Good luck in your search.</p>
<p>OP: I’m just curious what you feel proximity to the Cities will do for you?? Is it the shopping? The bars & nightlife? Restaurants? Proximity to your parents?</p>
<p>Well cbug I am from the north western corner of MN and getting to the cities is so hard since we are currently 6 hours away. Coming from a town of 8000 that has pretty much nothing, i just would love to have the options that the cities provide. Simply, i would love a change of pace; sick of small town life.</p>
