<p>I don’t want to go to Northwestern, DePaul, Loyola, UIC, UIUC, ISU, etc.</p>
<p>I refuse to consider applying to any schools in Texas, or the south, or most of the midwest.</p>
<p>I HATE GEORGIA…i dont wanna go to georgia tech!!! </p>
<p>i wanna go to either ucla or michigan!!!</p>
<p>I will not even consider going to school in Maryland or DC, especially because I already have a safety I’d be thrilled to attend that isn’t in those areas.</p>
<p>Mississippi is the worst state out of all mentioned so far. i can’t wait to leave.</p>
<p>Some days I want to stay in Cali (nostalgic) and other days I want to go to school way on the East Coast (adventurous). Both have their advantages..I guess it depends on how I feel on April 30th ._.</p>
<p>I refuse to go to college in Michigan. (Except U of Michigan is hard to say no to with scholarships and in state tuition.)</p>
<p>I grew up in the suburbs of Philadelphia. There were tens of great schools I could have gone to in the city, and even more in the state as a whole. No way! I needed to move far from home. I needed to get away from my brother. I hate cold weather, so I needed to move south. I didn’t apply to a single college in the north.</p>
<p>So I went to college in Florida, and it was great! I fell in love with the area, with the warm weather, beaches, greenery, flowers, wildlife… I could go on. I will never move back north.</p>
<p>absolutely ABHOR ASU, never will visit that school yet go there.. it’s a DISGRACE. As is NAU. thank you very much.</p>
<p>haha I’m originally from South Florida, didn’t consider location in applying to college (which is stupid because I’m a homebody), ended up at Northwestern, and might be transferring back to UMiami</p>
<p>I feel bad for the residents of Idaho, Wyoming, North and South Dakota and Alaska, mostly because there are practically no prestigous or popular colleges there.</p>
<p>Can anyone who doesn’t live in that general geographic region name two universities from those states that don’t begin with “University of …”?
All I can think of is Boise State (Idaho)</p>
<p>i wouldnt REFUSE to go to school in NJ but i just didnt apply to any. going to princeton wouldve been a dream but there was no way i was getting in. i didnt want to go to rutgers like 10% of my graduating class (some that have s*** for brains) and i didnt want to follow in my brothers footsteps and go to TCNJ even though its a good school becuase i wanted to go into business and theyre better for the sciences. and at that point i said i NEEDED to be near a city so that ruled out TCNJ. those are really the only 3 schools, imo, i wouldve considered “good enough” for me in the state.</p>
<p>my safeties were OOS big state schools. like penn state and delaware where good amounts of people from my graduating class wind up going too</p>
<p>I am not applying to UMD… not a good fit for me; the only college that I have in Maryland is Loyola College-and it’s a safety. Most of my college choices are in California.</p>
<p>I’ll just let all the people that want to go to UMD apply there… it just won’t be me!</p>
<p>Well as much as I say I would HATE to go to school in state (there is nothing, and I mean absolutely nothing, good about Arizona), I know that if money poses a problem I will stay in state.</p>
<p>Granted, if there were a school that I actually liked in Arizona I would be willing to stay in state for it. But for some reason, a school of 40,000 people (along with 80% of my graduating class who are moving on to college) getting drunk literally every other night of the week does not appeal to me.</p>
<p>The only school I am applying to in Pennsylvania is UPITT which is 4 or so hours away from where I live. Its not that I don’t want to live close to home though, since that is the school that is furthest away from where I live. (other schools are in DC, Baltimore and NY).</p>
<p>My S not only doesn’t want to stay in CT, but he refuses to be anywhere in New England!</p>
<p>I’ve got you all trumped. West Virginia. Yeah, I got out of there REAL fast. Best decision I’ve ever made.</p>
<p>I refused to go to a college in-state and, looking back, I think there were some pretty good fits for me here. I live in a pretty small state, but there were definitely opportunities to be in a different environment, and be fairly far away from home. I wouldn’t rule out a college JUST because it’s in your home state.</p>
<p>Heh, being from Wyoming, I think this is probably the worst state to go to college in…in the whole state, there are 6 community colleges and the University of Wyoming. That’s it. And UW would basically be just like high school all over again except in a not-beautiful part of the state; a lot of people go there because of an amazing full-ride scholarship deal for good grades and ACTs…
As much as I love living here, definitely escaping for college</p>
<p>70% of the people who go to college from my school go to a UMaine, mostly UMaine Orono. I WILL NOT GO THERE. High school all over again.</p>
