CWRU has certainly faced a lot of disparaging remarks concerning social life and things like that. I’m not super interested in Greek life, but I do want to feel like part of a welcoming community, which CC and Niche have proved missing in Case. In terms of budget, I am still a sophomore, but my parents have told me time and time again that they would prefer that I go to an averagely prestigious school with full tuition rather than an extremely prestigious university which they would have to pay for. So, a university that awards merit scholarships would be great, but not compulsory. I’d still like to be part of a relatively small college so I could form meaningful connections with classmates and professors. In terms of location, I’m really good with anything from Case’s downtown location to Kenyon’s rural Gambier. Over the summer, the colleges that I’ve researched have run the gamut from NYU to Colby College, so location in terms of city doesn’t really matter, but in terms of proximity to Cleveland, it does. Other potential majors for me would be Pre-Med, Clinical Psychology, Psychiatry, I think you get the gist. I’ve used sources besides CC, of course. Niche, PrepScholar, REDDIT, they’ve also all played key roles in my research. I hope this helps clear things up.
