OP: congrats. This same topic has arisen many times, for previous years. If you do a quick search both here and on the Stanford forum, you’ll find lots of discussion. Will you be able to attend Bulldog Days?

For me, I liked the compactness and closer feel of the Yale community. Stanford is bigger and feels it. Its not as cohesive and actively diverse as Yale’s residential college system allows. While at Yale, my long term GF was at Stanford so I was there often. Great times but I wouldn’t have traded the closer social bonds that people at Yale easily made as compared to Stanford. But I can’t imagine better weather than Palo Alto! My two cents.
