<p>“The tuition at Chicago is extremely high, especially compared to the tuition of Berkeley’s. I got Regents at Berkeley, while I received nothing from Chicago.”</p>
<p>Wait; I’m a little confused. Have you applied to Chicago yet? Because, and correct me if I’m wrong, didn’t you post on the TASP thread a while ago, which means you are a junior? If so, perhaps you could give Chicago a chance…Who knows? You might receive an excellent merit aid scholarship, which will obviously help with tuition costs.</p>
<p>You could be right about the EC/deflation thing, but I’m sure there are quite a few students who do partake in many outside-school activities while maintaining their academic standards. And, finally, there is very little to worry about with regard to the liberal v conservative vibe. I’ve even heard, in fact, that Chicago is one of the more liberal schools. This makes sense, though, considering the whole “life of the mind” campus culture.</p>
