<p>Yes, congratulations. What prompted you to apply to such different schools? Urban midwest medium sized research on the one hand and rural NE LAC on the other? Do you live near one? What makes you happy? The people you’re around? Being close to family? Adventure? Weather? A girl who works at my local coffee shop did both. . .undergrad at Middlebury and is now a grad student at WashU. Misses Vermont but is happy and challenged here, too. Winters are mild and short in StL, not in Vermont. Academics, by reputation, are good at both schools so it seems to get down to the type and size of student body, what you hope to study, and where you want to live.</p>
<p>Again, congrats on two great acceptance letters!</p>
