For the past few years, Princeton Review asked parents about the colleges they would send their kids to if cost and selectivity was not an issue. What is your absolute dream college?

I'd have chosen Penn, where I applied to twice. What stands out to me is the extent of the "one college" philosophy. That is, as an undergrad I could take law school courses, or graduate political science courses, or Wharton courses. Couple that with the school's high Jewish population, location in a major city, and balanced social scene, and it'd be hard to do better.

I would however like to note that the way the poll is set up is a bit, well, stupud. I mean, why put LACs like Amherst, with tech schools like CalTech? And why are California publics being compared to elite Midwestern research schools?

American University.

I honestly care nothing about going to a ivy college, or any of the colleges you mentioned above.

My dream public college would be Auburn University

My dream private college would either be Faulkner or Pepperdine.

If I had to do it all over again, I think I should have applied to Brown- I probably could have gotten in. Still, my school is still pretty much my dream school.

Are you still doing your year abroad over here?

berkeley is riding on its name at this point (then again most of those places probably are).


i still wish i didn't get rejected from reed. also, i'm worried that i might have to leave the school i'm enrolled in currently (smith) if they don't compensate enough for the tuition hike

i might consider mcgill as postgrad study

ps my horn teacher went to nec

I would love to go to NYU one day. Alas money prevents me from doing so.
