<p>The loans would be about half subsidized (2k) and half unsubsidized (2.5k) each year. Funny that you mentioned the Activist Anthropology track, I’m not familiar with it. I asked a few Plan II students about their knowledge of any human rights interdisciplinary study, and they referred me to the International Studies major, which does have some focus on HR, but not nearly as much as the Activist Anthropology does now that I’ve researched it. </p>
<p>Both schools are really, really great academically, but…the edginess of UChicago’s student body and the intellectualism that permeates through the campus is electrifying. I don’t want to have to stick with a small, particular portion of the student body just to feel that, y’know? I truly did not want to leave campus at the end of my overnight visit, which refers back to a point you mentioned. I come from a high school where sports are the “it” thing, and I’m really tired of it. One thing I hated about Austin was the noise that would ensue when the Longhorns won a football/basketball game. I’m all for school spirit, but it was such a huge turnoff. The influence of sports at UChicago is extremely minimal…and I like it that way. The cold weather will take some getting used to, but I’m dying to get away from the heat in Texas. Plus, Austin is about 10 degrees hotter than the northern part of Texas…scary.</p>
