Ok so I have been accepted into every university, but I have absolutly no idea where to go. I want to be in Philadelphia, I love the city everything about it. I am Looking to enter law school so i want a program that can prepare me for that. I also really want to go to a catholic affiliated university.
My dream school has always been Penn and regardless I will most likely go there for grad school... the is purely for under grad. Here are my choices: St. Joseph's University Pros: Nice campus, small student body, good repuataion, catholic, jesuit Cons: Older facilities, doesn't have a great pre-law program, not very social La Salle University Pros: Nice campus, good pre- law program, full academic/athletic scholarship, well respected, catholic, amazing parties, I love the atmosphere and student body as of now my #2 choice Cons: Bad area of Philly, not as hard to get into as Nova and Penn. Villanova University: Pros: Awesome reputation, good athletics, beautiful campus, excellent pre-law program, catholic, averagely social Cons: too far from the city and too close to home (main line), extremely expensive, the majority of the student body is snobby, The University of Pennsylvania: Pros: Ivy League, extremely social, excellent academics and athletics, globally recognized, amazing campus, center city, amazing parties, 6th best school in the country, dream school Cons: Little to no money coming my way, huge student body, not catholic affiliated, heavy course load opinions/ advice needed I want to commit by Christmas |

I know you wanted to be committed by Xmas but I'm procrastinating on sleeping so here I go
Ok so I have been accepted into every university, but I have absolutly no idea where to go. If I had read this two years ago, I would've wanted to be you and kill you at the same time.But! Now that I went to community college and am now at the perrrfect UC for me, I'm going to give you the cheesiest advice EVER! Follow your fcking heart, but make sure your brain approves. Just from what I read, it kinda' seems like you're a good nudge away from LaSalle, but mebbe that's just me. (: Oh, and GOOD LUCK with your decision! I was in the same predicament, and after talking to a bajillion professors who have given advice to a bajillion students in the same predicament, I realized that just the fact that you're giving this decision so much thought [hopefully!] means that you have a decent awareness of yourself and your well-being. That fact usually means that whichever university you choose, you won't regret it. |
