Campus Visit Notes for Washington University in St. Louis

Visit Description:

Overall, Wash U seems like a really relaxed place. Pretty campus, lots of student activities/clubs, nice profs (who actually teach the undergrads). St. Louis is an interesting city and there's a really pretty museum close to the Wash U campus. In terms of curriculum, I love the flexibility. Undergrad research isn't too hard to get involved with (just have to contact the office and the prof) and looks great on your graduate school app.
