Where you are - where you want to be.

<p>wow Prairie- Fordham @ Lincoln center is my first choice for spring 06 transfer- why are you transferring out? If you have any advice I'd love to hear it- I wish you the best of luck- I really really would like to be there next year!</p>

<p>Yeah I'm looking to transfer a second time as well. I hope it works out for both of us.</p>

<p>Duke -> Swarthmore</p>

<p>I'm not sure yet, though.</p>

<p>Cornell --> U of Penn or Columbia or Brown or Duke</p>

<p>whoa that's weird!
Don't get me wrong, I love FCLC! it's just that the major I want (music therapy) isn't offered here.
best of luck!</p>

<p>hey scoobygirl: im a freshman at bryn mawr i just dont really like the social life. the classes are pretty good, especially those in the math department, but socially the people are pretty introverted and the relationship with haverford/swarthmore/villanova/upenn is not all people say it is. haverford and swarthmore are pretty shady places actually, but i guess it depends what ure looking for since i know some people that enjoy hanging out there. what didnt u like about colgate?</p>

<p>bball87: upenn is amazing, the people are so nice and its socially amazing. i never thought id say that about a big university, but the relationships people form there definitely beat bryn mawr by far.</p>

<p>I want to be a Religion major with maybe a Poli Sci double major so if I went to Bryn Mawr, I'd have to take classes at Haverford since Haverford has the Religion dept for both colleges (I wonder why that is?). I probably wouldn't want to go to Swarthmore unless I absolutely had to. I really haven't heard anything good about it. When I visited Bryn Mawr last year, I loved it. Everyone seemed so friendly and diverse. Plus it seemed very intellectual.</p>

<p>I didn't like the social life at Colgate. My classes were pretty good and I loved just about all my profs. They're all really cool and interesting people. Outside of class though, I was miserable. There's an anti-intellectualism on Colgate's campus. Outside of class, people just aren't too serious about anything besides partying and fighting for their frats (which the current administration is trying really hard to curtail and I think eventually abolish). Also, Colgate is extremely homogenous in every way possible. I come from Philly and I went to a very diverse all girls hs so the homogeny on Colgate's campus drove me nuts. The last thing that I really didn't like about Colgate was the town it was in. The residents are really nice but there's only 2,000 people in Hamilton. It's really isolated. The closet city is Syracuse. However, Syracuse is sooooooooooo small compared to Philly or NYC. I really don't know why I didn't think about location issue more seriously in hs. I think you would like the fact that students at Colgate are very social though. I definitely didn't meet many introverts there.</p>

<p>yeah bryn mawr is pretty diverse and i picked it because of that and because i thought the location was the best out of everywhere else i was applying. i loved it when i visited too...and it seems that you know more about what you're getting into if u come here having already been to colgate. i thought colgate was pretty homogenous too, and i hated the location...i mainly just wanna go there because of my boyfriend haha, which is horrible. theres a lot of opportunity at bryn mawr to go into philly and do volunteer work and all that, which is great. and most of the professors are amazing. i think taking religion at haverford would be easy enough, and the professors are supposed to be good. im sure ud love it if u came. everyone is really nice and its easy to make friends.</p>

<p>Mt SAC to the University of California, Los Angeles or to the University of Southern California ;)</p>

<p>UBC ---> Harvard.</p>
