I'm definitely going even though I haven't gotten my FA package yet my parents want me to wait until I get it to send in my deposit though, and I'm still waiting on one more letter too. But I'm going and have been since like 2 years ago. haha

well at this point it's down to three. Bard, NYU, or USC. I'm really confused. Why does this have to be so hard?

=/ Those are all really great schools, and all EXTREMELY different schools. Try to figure out what you want from a college and keep narrowing it down.

My recommendation is to spend an evening/overnight at each of those schools, WITHOUT the accompaniment of friends or parents. By the time you return (alone) from the last school, you'll know in your heart where to attend next year.
Trust your heart in this matter.

I know that's what makes it so hard. They are all so different, and I do plan on visiting each school again. I'm not so much concerned about the fact that Bard is rural because even if I went to Bard nyc is relatively close what I'm concerned about is the difference in the education. A liberal arts education is just so different from the traditional college experience. Thanks for your support though, I really appreciate it. I'm sure in the end i'll make the right decision.

Nate, a liberal arts college is the traditional college experience. And if you are thinking of enrolling in The College of Letters, Arts and Sciences at USC or the College of Arts and Sciences at NYU you will essentially be attending a liberal arts college within a larger university. Bard will offer you what those schools at NYU and USC will offer you (well, more or less) without the graduate programs, business schools, dental schools, etc.

My daughter is happily going to Bard! But not until fall 2010 (admissions just granted her request to defer for one year).
