[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just one person and this is just one opinion. I’ve always been wary of “hot” or popular urban schools such as UCLA or NYU. Many students may be there to pursue a specific academic interest and take advantage of professional opportunities in the surrounding city, and that’s understandable. However, the ones who are drawn in by the brand name and exciting location alone without having a deeper reason to attend worry me more. I’d rather pay the $90,000 a year to an SLAC. [/quote] You have a strange conclusion…there are plenty of flagships that aren’t “hot” or in urban locations. Why is the alternative a tiny school in a likely freezing location (though admittedly maybe it’s one of the Claremont’s).[/quote] Also, UCLA and NYU have been “hot” for at least 20 years now. At some point it stops being hot and just is what it is.[/quote]
