College Search & Selection

<p>lol JohnAdams12… Lehigh vs Kansas. I guess not too many remember round one of the NCAA’s this year. Being a Lehigh alumnus, I do. David vs Goliath, but it wasn’t meant to be. Funny though, but Duke -Butler still wins the thread.</p>

62

<p>Hampden-Sydney v. Sweet Briar :)</p>

63

<p>Someone at my school is debating local state U vs. the University of Chicago. </p>

<p>And for a while I was debating Wellesley/Smith vs. Rose-Hulman. :D</p>

64

<p>Xavier vs UMich…</p>

<p>this is extreme</p>

65

<p>lol hampden sydney v. sweet briar!</p>

66

<p>I am currently torn between Columbia and Duke, and, yes, I know they are COMPLETELY different regarding their “environment”. I’ll visit both campuses this weekend, though, and work on my decision.</p>

67

<p>mcculloch v maryland</p>

68

<p>I’m deciding between Lehigh and Columbia.</p>

69

<p>UCSD vs. UW vs. Bowdoin vs. Univ. of Miami</p>

<p>Also known as the four corner spread offense.</p>

<p>Interesting ‘versus thread’ on the USC board:</p>

<p>Harvard vs. USC - Film School</p>

<p>USC also threw in $160K in scholarship money and the student really REALLY wants to make movies. Oh yeah and SC offered their Honor’s program. USC’s School of Cinematic Art is the #1 film school.</p>

<p>I suggested Harvard for undergrad and then apply for a MFA at USC-SCA but it’s a tough pick. Certainly an interesting choice!</p>

71

<p>I thought the Illinois (UIUC) vs NYU was pretty interested given the contrasts.</p>

72

<p>Trinity(CT) vs. Bard vs. Emerson</p>

<p>(leaning toward Trinity)</p>

73

<p>So many USC comparisons here…</p>

<p>For me? USC vs. Middlebury vs. Harvard waitlist (longshot, but JUST in case an acceptance comes through)</p>

74

<p>

</p>

<p>You dont need to go to film school to make movies. USC film is really all about the insane connections.</p>

75

<p>A girl at my school last year was deciding between UNC and Reed. Of course, in-state tuition makes UNC less strange of a choice.</p>

76

<p>How about Berkeley vs. williams.
I still cant decide</p>

<p>Please Help!</p>

78

<p>I’m debating Rochester Institute of Technology vs Tufts / SMFA dual degree program. </p>

<p>It’s basically Medical Illustration major vs Biology major and illustration.</p>

<p>Help?</p>

79

<p>HA! Son is choosing between Virginia Commonwealth University (in dreadful Richmond) and Carnegie Mellon (in beautiful Pittsburgh) …it only takes 1900 SAT to get into HONORS at VCU but he is adament that if CMU doesn’t cough up some merit aid…VCU it will be (we don’t qualify for FA). The common thread…great art schools…everything else is polar opposite. For HILLBEAN…S also accepted into RIT…pick it in a heart beat over Tufts/SMFA. Actually, pick it in a heartbeat over VCU but he won’t even consider it…</p>

<p>Tip for those looking for help–start a new thread (or link to an existing one) so people will see the comparison in the subject line.</p>
