<p>I'm still debating between Northwestern and Notre Dame.</p>
<p>Vassar
University of Chicago
UIUC
St. Louis University</p>
<p>UIUC, and penn/duke waitlists</p>
<p>I frequent the UChicago boards, as I will be attending there next year. But, as a resident of Chicago, I occasionally pop my head into the forums of a university not far from my home (Northwestern) - and a rival of the university I will be attending.</p>
<p>I noticed that two of the people who posted have turned down acceptances to the University of Chicago for Northwestern. I was wondering not only why you turned down the U. of C. but also why you applied to both schools (and what you found more enticing about Northwestern).</p>
<p>I did not apply to Northwestern, as the UChicago is my first choice and a school that provides the academic intensity and intellectualism I want. Of course, both schools are top notch academically, though socially they differ immensely.</p>
<p>So, why Northwestern?</p>
<p>Im most likely turning down Northwestern for Brown.</p>
<p>I'm turning down Michigan honors and William and Mary</p>
