Thank you everyone for your wonderful responses!
I’m actually curious what specifically about NU puts it far ahead of WashU from your perspectives, because at least to me these schools seemed near equal caliber.
Unfortunately I doubt it, with the May 1 deadline approaching and school responsibilities these next weeks (plus AP tests coming up). Actually, I was only able to visit NU because they flew me out. Obviously a virtual tour won’t compare to seeing campus in person but I’m hoping it might give me an idea.
Thanks again for all the responses, it’s a huge help!
