Hi guys! Right now my top 2 schools are Wash U vs UVA. I am currently undecided but I am interested in biology, public policy, and linguistics. I am attracted to the flexible curriculum at Wash U and also the strong academic advising but I found the campus culture to be rather elitist and sheltered when I visited. The UVA campus seemed more vibrant and I love the public policy Batten School program but I worry about certain aspects of attending a large university (forming relationships with professors, getting into the classes I am interested in, etc. ).
Any insights would be greatly appreciated!
