[quote=Anonymous][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, [b]St. Louis is [/b]cheap and [b]gorgeous[/b], 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] False. It’s a dump. [/quote]
