What is your dream school?

College Search & Selection

<p>Well, I'm kinda bored, so just for the heck of it--</p>

<p>I'll start:
Practical dream school - U Penn, Harvard (for business)
Realistic dream school - MIT (it's just a little easier for me bc I'm a girl and go to a math/science school)
Dream school just because - Princeton <3 Forever a dream I guess :/</p>

<p>I like Stanford, too. Yale's okay but not really good for business.</p>

<p>...and all this kinda sucks because I screwed up my senior year grades really badly.</p>

<p>Soooo what are your dream schools?</p>

<p>Princeton - Most realistic reach school, my 10-12 grades like be a 4.0 and im black :smiley: reminds me of Carleton
Vandy - Southern charm, only 2 hours away
Duke - Love the basketball team
Harvard - Just because</p>

<p>Practical dream school - Stanford. it’s in California and I need to get the **** out of here.
Realistic dream school - USC. i love L.A. :smiley: and I’m pretty much obsessed with USC. A lot of people in Tennessee hate USC because our (well, not “our” because i hate university of tennessee) football coach up and left to become USC’s football coach, and my dad thinks if I wear a USC sweatshirt to school one more time, I’ll get shot. oh well. :slight_smile:
Dream school just because - Duke. yea i don’t know. lol</p>

<p>wow, this was longer than expected.</p>

<p>UChicago for Econ plus I love Chicago. And Yale.</p>

<p>The suckiest decision ever would be to have to decide between UChicago and Yale. I just love UChicago so much, but my parents would never forgive me (and I might not either) if I turn down Yale.</p>

6

<p>Notre Dame is mine and has been for all 17 years of my life! Its prob just a little out of my range though (gonna transfer in after a year)</p>

7

<p>Cornell University, in groovy [and gorgeous] Ithaca, NY</p>

<p>No dream schools. =) I’m quite fond of CMU, but I’d be happy to go to my state school if finances become an issue. Somewhat realistic reach for CS, but I’m trying to apply for a dual-degree thing, and their School of Design accepts somewhere around 10%.</p>

9

<p>I would love to go to the University of Florida if I could go anywhere but it’s really just too far from home :(</p>

<p>But as for close to home Boston College for sure.</p>

10

<p>What’s the difference between practical and realistic?</p>

11

<p>I have four “dream schools”: Pomona, Swarthmore, UChicago, and Yale
Hopefully this will change after more visits… but if it doesn’t I’m going to have a tough choice deciding between Chicago and Yale for EA.</p>

12

<p>My only dream school is MIT</p>

13

<p>Brown or Harvard</p>

<p>I know they’re pretty different, but I would literally murder someone to go to either one.</p>

<p>^^^^
Practical - good for whatever you want to go into (eg. business, law, etc.)
Realistic - you actually have a decent shot of getting in</p>
