[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD really likes Rice for the STEM rigor, research opportunities, nice balance of slightly nerdy student vibe mixed with a fun (not fueled by heavy partying) and collaborative campus culture, but she doesn’t want to live in Texas. A science kid, high stats top rigor from a private that sends kid to both schools. Great ECs. Would Duke be similar to Rice academically and just as supportive, collaborative and fun or if it a lot less nerdy and more fratty?

What other high reach schools are like Rice but not in Texas? Narrowing down ED options. Not applying to HYP due to unhooked. [/quote] University of Rochester[/quote]

Excellent suggestion for a target school for a kid who has the stats to legit reach for Duke and likes the vibe of Rice but prefers to be in a blue state.

The kids we know at University of Rochester are very, very happy. Smart, interesting, and  social. But not your stereotypical fratty types. It’s a great school.
