DS got into both and went to Stanford. He got a lot more time outdoors, was more physical, and said while people worked as hard as they could, they had no problem collaborating and helping each other.

re major: dc is right now well-rounded and successful in STEM as well as writing and a talented artist. Also nationally ranked in a small sport. Not at all sure what major will be

Stanford looks like the world's largest Taco Bell.

Same, but went to Stanford. Loved every minute. Stanford is such a fun college experience.

You need to go see New Haven. Not that it’s so awful — it’s not — but it’s not so great either, and it’s nothing like Palo Alto. Hard to come up with a good comparison city, but I wouldn’t apply early without visiting.

Yes but that is essentially the same as ED when you are applying

Aren’t they both SCEA not ED?

I wouldn’t put too much stock into thinking about it until you get an acceptance letter.

Palo Alto is hands down a nicer place to live.

Sorry for not proof reading on teeny iPhone. That should be Palo Alto!

What do recent alums or parents have to say about yale v Stanford. Dc will have a shot at either ( a long shot, I know). We have spent a lot of time in Oslo alto with relatives but have never even been to new haven .
