[quote=Anonymous]I got my BA from WUSTL in 2001. I am a Virginia native, but I was looking for something different for college. Applied to Georgetown, W&M, Middlebury and Oberlin ( a real mixed bag, I know). The weekend I visited Wash U I knew it was the place for me. The people were genuinely nice, engaging, and uniformly bright and interesting. Mostly kids from the Midwest and east coast. I think at the time a third of the students were Jewish. I was on pell grants as were many friends, but I've read how that has changed. I loved my time there. The campus was beautiful, the people were great, the professors nearly all top notch. I was (and still am) in a humanities field. The only negative was that the campus was isolated from the larger city and that they spent so much $$$ on building so many new facilities on campus. Seemed like a lot of "keeping up with the Joneses" to create all these new dorms and activity facilities to match the amenities at richer schools. Which we all thought at the time was a huge joke. But, that is a very small negative. I would choose Wash U again in a heartbeat. [/quote]
