<p>I don’t think that’s the case. Some would actually ditch an ivy for Chicago (being the best econ school, no wonder).</p>

<p>The challenge was given to me to NOT laugh at this video, along with having dinner… you can guess the rest.</p>
<p>My brother (a current university student) wanted to transfer to UChicago, he had some probs with tremendous workload so he couldn’t apply there… he applied to other schools, I wish the best for him… and for all of us of course :)</p>
<p>Anybody waiting for Stanford in this thread? I have applied but I don’t feel it being my “dream place” to attend. I see as of yet there have been no acceptances into Stanford yet.</p>
<p>^^ Lmao, Murtaza. Great link. Does anyone remember the days when Soulja Boy used to be cool? Lol, I’m so glad the world has moved on. Best of luck to your brother btw! I’m sure he’ll end up at his first choice College. 
And nope, I didn’t apply to Stanford.</p>
<p>Incarcerated: Yeah, I’d take UChicago over at least Cornell and Brown in a heartbeat.</p>
<p>Con2015: Thanks! Yeah, I love it too and feel honoured to have been accepted.
Most probably. Let’s see. :)</p>
<p>I didn’t even hear of Soulja Boy right until I bought DJ Hero, I still wondered who the guy was and then I heard that he’s the “Crank That” guy (the song didn’t even sound good in reality… it was mashed with “Ridin’ Dirty” in the game and it sounded much MUCH better there).</p>
<p>I happen to have a friend in Chicago, he’s in University of Illinois… he actually told me to apply to UChicago and that it should be a great fit for me but I’m a future engineer, and UChicago didn’t had Engineering so I had to forgo his suggestion. Still I have to agree that it is a pretty awesome place.</p>
<p>It’s my brother who got a full-ride to Trinity (CT), and he got waitlisted for UChicago.</p>
<p>I got a full-ride to NYU Abu Dhabi, but I got rejected from UChicago :D</p>
<p>^ That’s great to hear ma3a20. NYU-AD is an amazing College, and so is Trinity. You have to be extremely impressive to just get into both, and you guys did so with Full-Rides. Congratulations! :D</p>
<p>Are you guys twins? Haha, we have a set of twins in my family (I’m not one of them). :)</p>
<p>NYUAD is fine I guess, and well me and my brother are not twins but we graduated high school together, its that I was promoted a class up ahead when back in Kindergarten, so from then onwards, I was in the same class as my bro, but we were in different sections.</p>
<p>I moved to AD around Grade 6 so I was in the same class and section as my brother in the new school and it has been like that since. My bro chose to go into a university and then apply for transfer while I chose to take a gap year and so the “year difference” will be adjusted now I guess. </p>
<p>Since we were in the same class/section, people always confused us as twins, even though we clearly have a year’s difference between us.</p>
<p>nice to be back 
and CONGRATZZZZ to all of the people who got acceptances from various colleges!!</p>
<p>and… I got wait-listed from UChicago… 
how many people got wait-listed from UChicago??</p>
<p>@pakipower
Congrats to you too UChicago is incredible. My brother and I aren’t twins. He had financial aid problems last year, so he had to apply again.</p>
<p>@murtaza101
I think pakipower was referring to me Good luck with your decisions.</p>
<p>congratz ma3 (and to your bro as well )
^^ it must have been easier to fill up those stupid online applications for the US unis as you also have a brother doing the same things with you :D</p>

<p>murtaza, did you get a two way plane ticket too???</p>
<p>Wow, how many people are getting waitlisted by UChicago? I mean, there are 3 waitlists from Roots alone (Speedyz you were right about the 1890 guy)! It’s crazy! And I don’t buy the Tufts Syndrome thingy at all. Chicago’s not that kind of school. It just isn’t.</p>
