<p>Hi, I've done just about every bit of research on these five colleges I'm interested in: NYU, UC Irvine, Georgetown University, Villanova, and Carnegie Mellon. What I DON'T have information about is an HONEST evaluation of what these colleges are like in terms of environment, student life, and the overall social atmosphere.</p>
<p>If you have the time, and if you're a student at one of these colleges, could you please tell me what you like and/or dislike about the school you go to?</p>
<p>I dont go there but I live in the area.</p>
<p>Nice area, nice campus, close to the city, mall, etc., very homogeneous student body, excellent academics (esp. biz), great school spirit. I would imagine the social life to be pretty good considering Philly is close.</p>
<p>I really dont understand how the career services office could be much better than the one at villanova. What your going to get from this school opposed to other institutions are individuals that you can develop relationships with and who will help you get a job or internship.</p>
<p>Villanova also has a very strong sense of community. I had the option of going to villanova or cornell as a transfer student last year and I chose villanova mainly becuase of this community feel. At plenty of other schools, your going to get heavy competition between students. Its amazing how the villanova students and faculty really work together to help everyone succeed.</p>
