<p>haha maybe his interviewer was suggesting other schools?
Mine started talking about schools I should apply to also.
How very encouraging =P</p>
<p>Centre college in Danville, KY ranks very high. Higher than UK. doesn’t it?</p>
<p>^^^ yeah … centre is very good … but it’s private … and thus there is no in-state advantage (tuition or otherwise).</p>
<p>however, I know a guy who goes to Centre (a really smart guy) and he says the workload/grading is ridiculous … I’ve heard this from other people too … Centre is very hard with considerable grade deflation.</p>
<p>UVA, Rice, Duke.</p>
<p>Vanderbuilt, Williams, Duke, Wake Forest</p>
<p>Wake Forest? How is Wake Forest like Princeton? :S</p>
<p>Dartmouth, Williams, UVA, Vanderbilt</p>
<p>Yale, Columbia, Penn, UChicago, or anything else in an urban environment. Similar students, very different atmosphere.</p>
<p>I prefer the urban ones. When I go visit my bro @ princeton i am bored to tears, when he vists me he is generally turned off by the urban environment</p>
<p>Unless you love Columbia and UChicago because you are deeply into math or science or philosphy…</p>
<p>Or Penn because you like the frat scene…</p>
<p>There are many axes.</p>
<p>Wake Forest is non-urban, small, and conservative, just like Princeton.</p>
<p>Any top notch liberal arts school, really.
Princeton stresses the importance of the undergraduate experience,
and that’s what these schools do best.</p>
<p>No offense, but you look like the generic Asian candidate to me.
Sorry, I just have a vendetta against math and science :P</p>
<p>Consider Wellesley and Williams.</p>
<p>uva and duke come to mind</p>
<p>Actually, Wake Forest is a beautiful bubble-campus of 4,000 with a preppy, conservative student body that offers a surprising array of graduate and pre-professional schools but is unabashedly undergrad-focused. And, some rich and famous send their kids there as well, so if those are the things that attract one to Pton, Wake might be a more accessible option.</p>
<p>i’ve heard st andrews in scotland is similar to princeton</p>
<p>Notre Dame, Wash U. St. Louis, Washington & Lee, Davidson
Scripps, Pomona, Carleton, Reed
Trinity (San Antonio)</p>
<p>Vanderbilt is a good school to provide back-up for Princeton. Woodrow Wilson was president of Princeton for many years and brought many southern traditions with him. UVa goes into the category too.</p>
<p>Though different in feeling, you might also consider Dartmouth and Brown.</p>
<p>And you may be admitted to Princeton.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>Schools like Princeton but easier? Check out Harvard and Yale</p>
<p>[Welcome</a> to Harvard University](<a href=“http://www.harvard.edu%5DWelcome”>http://www.harvard.edu)</p>
<p>[Yale</a> University](<a href=“http://www.yale.edu%5DYale”>http://www.yale.edu)</p>
<p>ivyboy05: Too funny.</p>
<p>Williams is not a conservative campus, nor, dare I say it, is Princeton.</p>
<p>I have to say, Carleton and Reed are REALLY unlike Princeton:).</p>
<p>Holy Cross is another good school. Alumother, I’m not sure what OP means by “like Princeton.” UChicago is not like Princeton, either.</p>
