Student Lounge College Life
101

<p>The whole 'grade 13' thing is why I turned down MSU, for the most part.</p>

102

<p>I would never lay foot in an all girls school. I would go completely nuts.</p>

103

<p>US Coast Guard Academy.</p>

<p>I could never be a puddle pirate</p>

<p>someone explain to me why some refuse to go to their own state's school?? </p>

<ol>
<li>I hate California....I HAVE to get outta here...</li>
<li>The only places that have business are UC Berkeley and UC Riverside.</li>
<li>I wouldn't get into Berkeley. and I don't like Berkeley. I can get into Riverside easy, but their business is crap.</li>
<li>I'd also rather avoid SDSU.</li>
</ol>

<p>If you like your high school and the people there, it shouldn't be a problem.</p>

<p>I like the people, but I wouldn't want to spend another 4 years with them.</p>

<p>If you have a reputation you do not like or not as many friends it isn't going to make a difference in college. </p>

<p>What?</p>

<p>I really cannot comprehend why people would give up places that offer great educations balanced with amazing social lives at unmatchable prices to go to a more expensive school just because it isn't grade 13?</p>

<p>NYU Stern Finance is better than Berkeley Finance. NYU Stern Finance is almost as good as Wharton Finance. And I wouldn't get into Berkeley. I don't like southern CA and I don't want to go to Davis or SC. There. I said it. And UCs are kinda overrated.</p>

109

<p>Oh with that said...I have to add UCs to my list. :D</p>

110

<p>^What's wrong with California?</p>

111

<p>Cheapseats...I'm a highschool junior, so I've not yet applied to any schools. But because of my financial situation I am almost certain I'll be going to Maryland (hopefully I'll get into the honors humanities program...<em>crosses fingers</em>). At first I was really down about it, but thank you /so/ much for all of that information! I think I'm really starting to realize that UMD is going to have a lot of opportunities for me. It's great to see somebody so enthusiastic about his school. It can only mean good things :).</p>

112

<p>Uconn...</p>

<p>Joining the grade 13 argument late, but my high school was on the Uconn campus -- which is also boring and in the middle of nowhere</p>

<ol>
<li>Bob Jones</li>
<li>Oklahoma Panhandle State University</li>

<ol>
<li>Texas A&M</li>
<li>Texas A&M</li>
<li>Texas A&M</li>
</ol>

<p>Yet my parents are making me spend a night there at some get-acquainted-with-honors program over the summer? WHAT?</p>

119

<p>any school with lame big nerds.. like harvard.</p>

120

<p>Any religious/conservative college, any all-women's college, anything in states where summer temperatures only reach 60 degrees and winters go to below 0. </p>

<p>My plan is to just stay in the South. Sure, Northern schools might be better/have more Ivy Leagues/whatever, but I am not going up there to freeze my ass off all winter :) :-P</p>
