<p>Apply to both RD, and go visit both in the fall while classes are in session (end of October, early November would be best for “average” experience) and preferably overnight stay, and going to classes etc. You sound undecided enough that I think you will feel better about your decisions (provided you have a choice) and have less “what ifs” down the road.
(You will find plenty of outdoor sports, mountaineering ppl, etc to keep you busy, plenty of friends who will be cool with you not drinking, and plenty of non frat, non hipster types at both schools.)</p>
