I'll still be here are Oregon State. Where currently (in what is supposed to be summer) it's absolutely POURING rain and there's ridiculous wind storms and shit throwing bikes across the street and waking me up at 7 am. Not pleasant. Definitely not.

I am an Alum of New York University: Stern School of Business
Good times.
I applied to pursue an MBA at Columbia and NYU but Columbia just rejected my ass today :angryfire and NYU has me waitlisted :veryangry !!! My own alma mater waitlisting me....sigh....
Still, NYU is a great place, suicides and lack of any community withstanding.

I know someone who's going there next year! Just thought I'd share.
I'm only going to be a junior, but I've heard the same thing about Villanova. Then again I think about half of the girls who have graduated from my school have gone there..

I'm going to be a sophomore at UNLV (University of Nevada, Las Vegas) next year. The cool thing about UNLV, besides the free shows (Nofx and Yellowcard this year) is that it is cheap as hell for locals. Since I'm a Nevada resident and I got a cumulative 3.7 GPA in high school they awarded me a scholarship that pays for about 80% of my tuition. I would highly recomend UNLV to anyone who wants to have a real laid back and informative college experience.
Interesting UNLV facts:
1) On campus bar (food and beverage "experiment")
2) An almost 2:1 female-male ratio
3) The skate/punk scene is alive and well
4) Very diverse population

Haha, Cali seems so out of place in that group of states. But yeah, I think part of the attraction is that it's in Boston, and a lot of people here want to go somewhere that's not the city and Boston is a cool place.

I wouldnt be accepted on EU status even if i hold a German passport...(Switzerland isnt in the EU and i live here) so therefore id pay foreign student fees. which is SO SO expensive that the numbers scare me. And plus, i dont think id enjoy being in england for 3-4 years. It just doesnt suit me as much as mainland europe

Going into my junior year at Monmouth College. Don't know where that is? That's okay...it's in the middle of farm country, Illinois. It's ridiculously small and it's pretty much 50/50 between Chicago kids (like me) and farm kids (like my roommate). It gets pretty boring but it has it's charm. I think it only has 1,150 students, total. Wow...my high school was 2,600. That's sad.
