<p>U Chicago is one of those LAC's which is more selected than it is selective. But, it has one characteristic which the majority of LAC's do not have -- it is urban and in a really really big city. I would tend to believe that U CHicago would become more selective than selected if urban dwelling increasingly alllures undergraduate students.</p>
<p>And, to anyone thinking about applying to U Chicago as a safety, I say have fun with their infamous Uncommon Application. It takes more time and definately a great deal of thought. It is no cake walk.</p>
