<p>NYU. The least collegiate experience in the country. No sports, no campus, no spirit.</p>
<p>any of the ivies besides Upenn, NYU, moorehouse and Xavier(OH)</p>
<p>Despite our agreement on NYU, ironically, UPenn is the last Ivy I would go to.</p>
<p>i would never, ever go to wesleyan, vassar, bard, reed, lewis and clark, swat, brown, nyu. you couldnt pay me to go to any of them. yuckie.</p>
<p>BU/NYU- i hate city enviroments </p>
<p>Upenn/Princeton- I would hate going to a college 30 minutes from my house</p>
<p>couldnt go to my state university (haven for kids who cant/dont want to move on from high school).. a huge, super-urban campus (nyu-esque).. bob jones university (b/c I get a kick out of merely typing it).</p>
<p>pirt -- whats your beef with those schools?
also, are you conservative?</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Where I live, which is Southern California, UC Riverside is the school people want to avoid.</p>
<p>Rutgers. I'm from NJ and everybody goes there, but its just too big for me. I much prefer TCNJ (even though I'm not exactly dying to go there either)</p>
<p>NYU, Harvard, SDSU, Any overly religious schools, Penn State, Any of the crappy CCs here, any school in NJ or NY, any school with a direction in its name (minus UNC)</p>
<p>An LAC where frats rule. Seems a little contradictory.</p>
<p>Overly religious schools
Overly Greek schools
Community Colleges
MIT, Caltech, and the like
Schools that are isolated from the rest of the world, for example Kenyon</p>
<p>Harvard/ Lsu</p>
<p>gellino: NYU. The least collegiate experience in the country. No sports, no campus, no spirit. </p>
<p>agreed. of course some ppl like that experience and it works for them. but it is missing a campus, spirit, and sports.</p>
<p>I would never ever go to UC Riverside. also probably none of the CSU's besides the two top ones which are Cal Poly SLO and SDSU</p>
<p>Some people may like the impersonal NYU experience, but how it can be considered the #1 "dream school" in the USA is beyond me. Maybe, when people get there, they find out that it's something different than they expected.</p>
<p>maybe. i think the number dream school would probably be more like U Miami...with beaches nearby, palm tress all around, kickass sports and school spirit. Not that i want to go there, but at my school, it has become a hell of alot more popular in the past yrs.</p>
<p>Ahhh, you people make me laugh.</p>
<p>Eastern Michigan University. It's kind of a crappy school. It's in Ypsi (yuck). It's next to Ann Arbor. Basically it's surrounded by a bunch of towns I dislike. It's 10-15 minutes away from my house.</p>
<p>Central Michigan University. It's in Mt. Pleasant. Enough said.</p>
<p>Probably any school that cares way too much about athletics. (meaning all of the students are really into the games and stuff)</p>
<p>Hendrix- Gave me the creeps when I randomly stopped in on the way home from visiting other places</p>
<p>Colorado School of the Mines- for obvious reasons</p>
<p>Reed- Beautiful buildings, strange people</p>
<p>Berkley- In the 90s all the TAs went on strike and they had to cancel 75% of the classes. No thanks.</p>
<p>Brigham Young, Notre Dame or Texas A&M. I'd probably get some sort of political diversity scholarship. I'd be a whiff of fresh patchouli-scented air!</p>
