<p>Hi! :) These are the colleges I'm considering...</p>
<p>I believe that the most important part about making a college decision is deciding where you are truly going to be happy. To me, this isn't about academics. It is about the lifestyle, and while I want a school with good academics, I also want to live in an atmosphere where I can prosper and grow as a person.</p>
<p>So.. Here they are. </p>
<ul>
<li>University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth</li>
<li>University of Rhode Island</li>
<li>Simmons College</li>
<li>Northeastern University</li>
<li>MCPHS</li>
<li>Regis College</li>
<li>Curry College</li>
<li>West Chester University</li>
<li>University of Delaware</li>
<li>Salve Regina University</li>
</ul>
<p>Thankss Bunches! Anything aboutttt the school will be greatly appreciated =)</p>
<ul>
<li><p>University of Rhode Island-big-time party school. Close to Brown. Gives ZooMass a run for its money.</p></li>
<li><p>Northeastern University- rapidly trying to grow its reputation, spends lots of effort emphaizing its location, and IMO has a vibe that it has a manifest destiny to become an elite college. Probably will grow in prestige, though.</p></li>
<li><p>West Chester University-commuter school in beautiful West Chester, PA, a suburb where the infamous comic Dave Barry got his start writing about city maitnence issues. Growing in reputation.</p></li>
<li><p>University of Delaware- VP Joe Biden is an alumnus, a bit of a party school but less so than U RI. Has many reputable programs.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>NE’rn U is definitely the “best” college on the list. However, if you really want a school that “fits” well, you need to get a feel for different school types (urban vs. suburban, large vs. small, etc.) You can do this by visiting local uni’s that fit the criteria if necessary, ex. visit U Mass-Amherst instead of U Deleware.</p>
<p>Thank you so much for you input!
I have visited a number of the schools also… so i appreciate that advice =)
I was more or less wondering how it really “was”… because you know you never get the same thing on the tour…</p>
<p>Also, city and suburban doesnt bother me, as long as I’m not in the middle of nowhere :)</p>
