Wow some of you guys are really really smart, how do you do it? I know some people who are just smart, and some who just have good work ethics. I was really smart as a kid and I kind of just plateaued as I got older. Maybe I should start playing with Lego's and putting together jigsaw puzzles again...
But at what cost?

Doing communication studies at University of Vermont. If any of you guys go there, let's meet up some time, as I'll be a lonely exchange student over there. Arriving sometime around 24th August. I'm a cool person, I promise!

Someone contacted me about starting up a CSL team at UMBC, not sure if he has a TL id though. If he does, it'll probably be this: msjx2000

(Canadian Universities)

As of now, accepted: McGill, UofT, UBC

Waiting: Queens, Waterloo


UBC FTW definitely. Strongly recommend. Beautiful campus, close to downtown, and just by the beaches !! Queens and Waterloo slightly fall in relative world ranking. I've heard UofT has bad reputation for undergrad student services. McGill is good too!


Anyone going to college this year or the next, come to UBC! We could use some more SC players. Maybe if I was in applied science/comp sci faculty I would find more SC players haha.

While I don't go to UVM, I do visit the campus about twice a year. I'll be up in Burlington during the fall visiting! I (along with friends) always go to away games in Hockey East for UMass Lowell. So if you like hockey, beer, and fun times, I'll hit you up the next time we go.

My only advice to you guys would be to go to a cheaper school or a school where you get a scholarship from.

Taking on a load of debt, unless you can get your parents to pay for it, isn't worth it compared to most state schools or schools you can get a scholarship at. Unless you plan on applying to a top professional school, in which case you may have some money issues regardless, it's just not worth the expense because you'll be paying off A LOT of debt well into your late 20s.

I thought I would ask this here since it's a pretty simple question and somewhat relevant.

The apartment rents during summer around college is cheaper because many move out right? Would it be cheap until the year begins? Do they make you sign long contracts for the cheap price? I'm thinking about moving to San Diego some time before the term starts for maybe about a month.
Stuck.

I've found the price remains the same throughout the year but then again, I do live in a rebounding industrial city of about 100,000 plus. Plenty of college kids live in apartments here throughout the year and I've found the better apartments/landlords will make you sign a year lease. I recommend it since it protects you as well as them.

Having said that, if you want to do finance, there's absolutely no better place to go than Penn. I try to say that with as little bias as possible.



NYU's program is just as good, or at least runs a close second, which is more than made up by the location and convenience IMO. Easier/more convenient internships during college =P


Do you go to NYU? I can't seem to access the housing page and I want to know if it is guaranteeed, price, etc.


Yep I'm at NYU Stern. Housing is guaranteed if you fill out all the forms/meet the deadlines/pay the fees. As for quality, I can say that freshman housing definitely leaves a lot to be desired, but startnig from year 2, the price remains the same bu the quality increases dramatically, and you would pay less than you would pay for a comparable apartment out of NYU.

NYU does carry a pretty steep price tag, but it's about on par with most private universities. Depends on your aid I guess. NYU has a reputation of being stingy, but I'm fairly satisfied with my financial aid considering my background (20k/year for a upper middle class standard suburban Asian family), but I also know a lot of people who're fairly unsatisfied with their aid. Wait and see I guess.

What school are you in? I know Stern tends to give better aid than other schools.


Arts and Sciences. I got accepted into the Global Liberal Studies Program but I am having doubts about whether this is what I want to do.

Anyone familiar with the GLSP?

Don't do it. I know a friend who rejected it saying the courses were bullshit and a friend taking it right now isn't too happy. Stick with CAS
Qwerty.

My head would say Purdue.

My heart would say UC Irvine... because personally I want to dance with Kaba Modern. But that's just me =)

Don't worry about it Berkeley is probably harder to get into than Stanford for international students.

Everyone should come to the University of Michigan! Great campus, atmosphere and academics. Just make sure some snow and cold weather doesn't bother you (below 30 for at least 4 straight months during the year).
