Would you ever turn down an acceptance to Harvard?

Yes, I could never see myself at Harvard, even assuming that I had the credentials to get in. It’s old, stuffy, etc…To me it’s not worth even the prestige.

Plus, one of my friends is a current student there and she had so many extra essays AFTER she got in but before classes started along with tons of placement exams and all the rest…sounds like a pain to me. For her orientation, they had to read a bunch of boring essays and discuss them (I’m not against reading essays but I saw the topics and they were really dry…). Wow, fun…
