[quote=Anonymous]Great choices. Did your DC look into what classes and requirements for the major?  Do they have a sense for the job outplacement and geographically speaking where those jobs tend to be? If grad school is the goal, which one is stronger in grad school outplacement for the field of study?  Do they feel strongly about being in a big city versus college campus with big school basketball?  Is there any preference to being at a school that is known for pre-med while taking a less popular major versus being at a school where your major is very popular?  What are DC’s feeling about Greek life?  If leaning towards Duke, any strong feelings about the new residential living model that starts with the incoming class?

I’m a Duke alum, graduated in the 90’s and absolutely loved my public policy major.  Other than the amazing friends I made, it was the best thing about the school for me and something that I don’t feel I would have gotten anywhere else I applied.  Socially speaking, it very Greek heavy back then and that wasn’t my scene.  I do feel like with the new QuadEx residential living model they are trying to encourage more interaction and reduce the Greek/non Greek divide. Your DC can’t truly go wrong with either choice and some of my initial questions could maybe help with the decision.[/quote]
