<p>So why are you applying in the first place :)? UChicago has lots of interesting clubs and student organizations that you may want to check out. Also, you may like the location—big city, lots of cultural activities. Are you interested in research or study abroad? As a large research university, UChicago has lots of funds specifically for that, but I can’t recall the names of the grants on the top of my head. Also, of course, all the school traditions, like the Scavenger Hunt arkleseizure mentioned.</p>
