[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I don’t hate WashU. My observation from our visit there, conversations with students and parents, and my kid’s view, is that it often isn’t a first choice because kids really, really love it, but rather (a) their counselor tells them it is their best shot for ED and/or (b) it is the best school they got into in RD. That makes for a campus (albeit beautiful) without much enthusiasm. Not what my kid (and others I know) wanted for their college experience. [/quote] I think that students come to Wash. U. thinking it’s below places like Harvard. Then they see that the professors are easy to talk to, the students are normal people, St. Louis is cheap and gorgeous, and Wash. U. is doing everything it can to do right by them, and they realize that what they really needed was right there at Wash. U. all along. [/quote]
