So I’m deciding between Stanford and Harvard for undergrad. I hope to one day attend Stanford or Harvard Business School.

Right now, I’m almost 100% towards Stanford because I absolutely love the perfect weather, campus, and fun/laid-back atmosphere. Also, I really like the management science & engineering program at Stanford.

For Harvard, I was really disappointed with the campus when I went there and felt the atmosphere was cold and uninviting. But then everyone keeps telling me of all the connections I’ll make at Harvard and how it’ll be great to live right next to Boston.

So, emotionally, I really want to go to Stanford. But what school will be most helpful in getting me into the best business schools? I already turned down Princeton, but I like Princeton better than Harvard. ugh. now my parents and other people are making me really think about Harvard.

Suggestions? Any insights from former undergrads?
