<p>Thank you SO MUCH everyone who’s posted! This was really helpful! </p>
<p>In context to NU: But I think since I’m going to be doing Pre-Med (almost like 75% sure) I’ll either have to major in something kind of easy (nothing is exactly “easy” at NU) or do something else altogether, because with the quarter system and other requirements etc, I feel like I won’t be able to be involved in Theatre outside of my major and stuff. Actually, even if I don’t major major in Theatre/Film and do some other major like Psychology, I still really want to be in like at least 2-3 plays a year! With a decent role in each haha :)</p>
<p>So what I’m really wondering now is, if you just want to do productions at Emory/Northwestern, how many in year can you possibly/practically do? Like perform in? And is it really competitive at NU? Even in Emory?</p>
<p>But I think I’m leaning towards Emory honestly. Because of several factors like:
- Weather well ATL does beat Chicago here.
- Social scene (I’ve heard from a current student who’s my close friend that there is a social stipulation in the NU society, she may have her own opinion but I’m a really social guy! And I think I’ll get kind of depressed by the winter for one, and also if the social scene is kind of :/)
- Semester system. I really want to be actively involved in stage productions and I feel like with the pace of the quarter system, I won’t be able to manage Pre-Med requirements + a major in not only Film but anything for that matter.
- Campus. Emory has a pretty big campus and I don’t really like the idea of a campus mixed into a neighborhood.</p>
<p>I just want to know if these are valid points. I still love NU! And I am definitely NOT trying to bring it down in any way here, I love it. But I think because of the reasons listed above, I would rather go to Emory. I just need some help, if you guys can tell me if they’re valid reasons 
Please! :)</p>
