Northwestern vs. Harvard

Colleges & Universities A-Z Northwestern University

<p>Go to NU.

  1. If you’re doubting Harvard, it’s got to be for a pretty good reason.
  2. Northwestern still gets you stellar academics, but at the same time you have a (let’s be blatant here) FUNNER atmosphere.
  3. You only live once. So why not make your college years more enjoyable?
  4. Chicago proximity (granted, Boston /Cambridge is nice too), Big 10 sports (even though NU doesn’t exactly win win win no matter what), and lack of East Coast pretentiousness (I mean, every school has their dbags, but they’re pretty avoidable in Evanston).
  5. I don’t know what EnoughAlready is talking about when it comes to aid…my family’s very standard upper-middle class and the aid package I received…let’s just say it was enough to make me start hyperventilating, and NU is now wayyy cheaper than in-state public school.
  6. We can hang! --Just accepted to Medill :)</p>
