[quote=Anonymous]I have a first year at UChicago so still fairly new. So far, he’s been really happy at the school. Even though he is a science major, he loves his humanities class and would often discuss with me.

He had really good options to choose from last year. Some that people might consider higher tier but for him, UChicago was the one. He wavered for a little bit but after visiting the campuses, he was convinced.

I suggest visiting before ED-ing but also have some trust in your child.

Do I worry about the location? Do I sometimes wish mine picked a “safer” campus? Of course but he is really happy where he is at. They are also guaranteed 4 years of housing. However if they decide to go off campus for the remainder of their years, remember, a 20 year old choosing to move off campus after living there for two years would have a different wisdom than a newly arrived 18 year old to Chicago. I’m trying to project how my son would be two years from now if he decides to move off campus and I think I would be ok with it. Still worried but I would hope after 2 years living on Hyde Park, he would know what he’s doing.[/quote]
