<p>I think you misunderstood what I meant. Princeton, NJ is obviously a really nice, quaint town. But the state of NJ itself doesn’t have much to offer. And nobody is trying to chill in the Princeton suburbs either. As mentioned, NYC and Philly are nearby and easy to get to. That’s where a lot of students go. </p>
<p>And I’m really not sure why you think Harvard and MIT are the only schools in a “quality location” on the East Coast. Did you forget about Columbia, Georgetown, UPenn, etc.? There are a lot of other great locations on the East Coast other than Cambridge.</p>
