<p>srrinath,are you a 2014-er?If not,which uni did you get into?:)</p>
<p>Well put, Quasi :D</p>
<p>(this happened on FB if you guys are wondering)</p>
<p>i’m a 2014-er. still in the process of finalizing my list.</p>
<p>Aren’t we all…<em>sighs</em></p>
<p>So far the only college I’ve confirmed on my list is Pomona College.</p>
<p>^ Oh I’ve confirmed that too :)</p>
<p>you guys, do you have MSNs or yahoo? PM me if you’re free to talk</p>
<p>I want to apply early to either Yale or Stanford. I just can’t for the life of me decide which. Are any of you guys doing either?</p>
<p>^Of the two, i’d choose Stanford.</p>
<p>^ And I’d choose Yale. Go figure.</p>
<p>I’m doing Brown.</p>
<p>Personal notions of preference aside, what’s your major? Stanford and Yale each have their own niches. Except I can tell you campus-wise, Stanford trumps Yale</p>
<p>^ Seriously? Stanford’s campus is like a friggin’ city with Spanish-style architecture. Yale looks like Hogwarts, but some of the residential colleges are on the streets and stuff. Depends on your taste I guess. I loved the slightly edgy feel Yale’s campus had to it.</p>
<p>This is a totally random question,but what does “preppy” mean? and what is a “quad” ?</p>
<p>srrinath, I’m completely undecided about my major (and, I mean, I’m certainly APPLYING to both schools, I just don’t know where to apply EARLY). tetris, Hogwarts sounds friggin awesome, but California for me is hard to argue with.</p>

<p>Stanford is very sunny, but it’s not need-blind towards internationals… though, if both Yale and Stanford offered me equal FA packages, I would probably go for Stanford. :D</p>
<p>P.S. Hi to all the new posters on the thread :).</p>
<p>“though, if both Yale and Stanford offered me equal FA packages, I would probably go for Stanford.”</p>
<p>Why?</p>
<p>Quasi, also keep in mind that Yale is need-blind whereas Stanford definitely isn’t</p>
<p>Then if it’s true that you have a better chance if you apply early, I should do Stanford, because my neediness works against me there? :D</p>
<p>It would work against you whether you apply early or not. Stanford’s known to be particularly brutal in the early round, with loads of rejections and hardly any deferrals.</p>
<p>It’s pretty brutal RD as well, you know.</p>
