[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC has about 14 days to decide. Undecided on major - maybe trying for the business school McIntire at Virginia. As a parent, is it crazy to think Chicago will have fewer distractions compared to the rah-rah UVA?[/quote] UChicago parent. Not so much that there aren't a lot of potential distractions, after all it's on the outskirts of a very fun city. But the ethos is to take the academics seriously so there is little to no pressure from peers to skip studying and party instead. Needing to work is highly respected. My DC (and friends) is very social and active in attending/throwing parties but appreciates the lack of pressure to do so in order to keep up friendships. Just to ward off the inevitable remarks on these threads...I am not comparing to UVA as I have no insight on that school. [/quote]
