Another vote for Stanford –– it is truly an exceptional school with filled with very bright, quirky, collaborative, highly motivated students. There’s pretty much something for everyone there and the school does a great many things very, very well. My D –– who is not one to spend money frivolously and for whom cost was a significant consideration –– turned down full tuition scholarships at schools like Vandy and Wash U to attend Stanford at near full-pay (we did get a token amount of FA). She does not regret her decision to forgo the scholarships for a single, solitary second (no do we!!) and is 100% certain that she made the right choice!
