Agreed with making it a sticky - it would be better than the "Carleton waitlist shock" thread.

Yes, "they" exist. You contact "them" by clicking on the Report Problem Post link. I've done it, but it's helpful to have more than one person make the request.

The "Carleton Waitlist Shock" thread has been up for several years. Yikes.

Anyone (past or current) deciding between Carleton and Princeton? I absolutely love them both, and I have no idea how to decide between them.

22catch22 - while it's not a direct Princeton/Carleton comparison, you may want to check out the threads on Yale and Dartmouth, both which essentially ask 'Carleton vs Ivy?' I know, not the same...but maybe it'll help in some ways.

Haha, thanks, but I've already checked them out. They helped somewhat, but in the end, this will come down to me actually making a choice (which I am terrible at).

22catch22:

You may want to start a new thread (e.g. Carleton v. Princeton) and tell us a bit more about you. More likely to see responses in general, and certainly more tailored responses to your personal likes/dislikes.

We did it! This thread has now replaced the waitlist shock at the top of the forum! Yay!
