<p>So far I've been accepted to 4 schools- Saint Joseph's University, The College of New Jersey, University of Deleware and Fordham. I'm still waiting to hear from Villanova.</p>

<p>I have no desire to attend Fordham... I only applied b/c I got a free app. I'm not anticipating getting the $$ I need from Villanova in order for me to attend.</p>

<p>So between, SJU, TCNJ, and UDel, which do you think has the better reputation (in the Philadelphia area and beyond) and academic programs? I'm planning on majoring in Business, mostly marketing. Also which of them has the better atmosphere, like with a good balance between studying and partying. I don't want to go to a huge party school, but I want a good social atmosphere that isn't stifling or boring.</p>

<p>I really love SJU. I think its a great school and I would be happy there. But TCNJ and UDel are like $8,000 cheaper, and I like both of them as well. I would like to know what other people think of all 3 before I make my final decision. I can't look at the schools objectively anymore!</p>

<p>Thanks so much!</p>

<p>I have heard good things about UDel from a few coworkers who sent their kids there, or worked there in the past. The student reviews are also good. It has a pretty good rank, too, if you want to consider that. I would go with UDel.</p>

<p>TCNJ is more on the quite side, there's not a lot of big parties, but the atmosphere is friendly, the campus beautiful and I'm sure you'd have a great college experience here! I'm a student at TCNJ, so PM me if you have any questions!</p>
