I might get to go to Northwestern next week end

I am so excited.

Does anyone think it's a bit presumptuous to visit the campus a week before hearing of admittance? I haven't visited all of the schools I am applying to, and since the rest are east coast, the best time for me to visit Evanston is before April 1st.

I'm thinking even if I don't get in that means I had a fun, short vacation in Chicago... thoughts? Am I jinxing it for myself?

I had a Model UN conference at Princeton the weekend before I heard from there (that I didn't get in ED). It wasn't fun.

Honestly, if its convenient, go visit. If you then don't get in, oh well. But i would highly recommend Preview NU, the admitted students weekend, for a visit.

I've been to NW serveral times, but I was there last summer for a program called "The National High School Institue" where I stayed on campus for five weeks learning film & Video. The campus was AMAZING! Their was a beach, fitness center, and running track right behind our dorm building! It was great!

I also was at a summer program hosted at NWU called CTD and i got to stay there for two weeks. The campus was amazing. It was perhaps located in the best place possible. It had a campus that was located in a small town and it is right outside the city of chicago and it is by the water of Lake Michigan. In fact they have an on campus beach. The campus itself was just beautiful because they had walkways and cycling paths that were right next to the water and everything was incredibly nice. Unfortunately during the summer some of their buildings and centers were closed so i didnt get to see everything but from what i saw their classrooms and labs were very nice. I loved the campus and it was my first choice until my mom told me its too far haha.
