Penn vs. Dartmouth

<p>After visited and researching lots of colleges, I've realized that my favorite two colleges are Penn and Dartmouth.</p>

<p>I really want to apply early decision to one of them and am really confused on which one I should apply to ED. Help!</p>

<p>What do you like and dislike about each?</p>

<p>I liked Dartmouth's small town and tight knight feel. It's seemed really laid back. I also like Penn's fast paced scene with lots of students in this urban environment. </p>

<p>Funny thing is that I only really liked these two colleges out of the 20+ colleges I've seen.</p>

<p>well, what would you like the study? what kind of education do you want to receive? what would you like to do after college?</p>

<p>You say you like laid back then u say u like fast paced. I'm confused.</p>

<p>The environments of these schools are very different.
Dartmouth is isolated and has a feel of a 'summer camp'.
Penn is in West Philly and definitely has a different feel to it.
Penn is larger than Dartmouth.
Dartmouth has more of a jocky culture.
Both schools emphasize Greek life.
I would personally pick Penn over Dartmouth any day- except for the fact that Dartmouth accepted me and Penn didn't, lol.</p>

<p>Both schools will offer you the finest undergraduate education and experience in the nation.</p>

<p>It really depends on what you want more, the laid back part or the fast-paced part (Not to say that Dartmouth lacks intensity or Penn lacks places and opportunities for chilling....BIOPOND!)</p>
