Hey if you just so happen to remember me, I just want to pop in and share with everyone in the world my finalized college list. Since I'm going away to college next year I'll doubt I'll have time to have any fun on the internet. But anyway here's my college list in order from Top choices to Safetys:

1.) Emerson College (Boston)
2.) Boston University
3.) Syracuse University (Upstate NY)
4.) Quinnipiac University (CT)
5.) Marist College (NY)
6.) Ithaca College (NY)
7.) University of Connecticut
8.) University of Rhode Island
9.) Universty of Massachusetts Amherst

Life is Good. I hope everyone else is doing great.

Correction: At college you always have time to have fun on the internet, even if you shouldn't.

Yes, this is true.

And why no Southern Illinois University-Carbondale?

Greatest school on earth, home of the Salukis.

We kick ass.

home of the Salukis

um...what's a saluki? :confused: :)

Oh, and I'm a high school senior and going through the whole college selection thing too. It's a pain

It's a wolf-type thing, right?

I'm in a JC, trying to find a good school to transfer too :p. Looking over near New York meself...

Just make sure you go to a school with a good football team.

55-6! Take that, Terps. Now get the hell out of my state.

A saluki is an egyptian hunting dog. Oldest known breed of domestic dogs.

It is the mascot of Southern Illinois University and ironically my high school as well.

Locations? I've only heard of Vassar to tell you the truth. but that could just be my new england shelteredness.

Whitman is in Walla Walla Washington. Lewis & Clarke is outside of Portland Oregon. Santa Clara is in Cali (forgot the town). Gonzaga is in Spokane Washington. U of A is in Touscon Arizona. VAssar is in Pughkeepsie, New York. Willamet is also in Oregon.


I used to live in NJ but transfered to AZ, so now most of my school picks are west cost.

A lot of those schools are just ones I visited (whitman, L&C, gonzaga, santa clara) and I liked them so I'm applying. I wanted to apply to Tufts, Fordham, Rutgers, Boston College, and a few others but I didn't find enough out about them.

BC's tough to get into, and it's Catholic. For some reason that turns me off.

I go to a Jesuit school. They'd probably like me even though I'm not religious. I'm used to the religious school thing now.

Ahh, the good old college search. I don't know what you are planning on majoring in, but if you want to do something in the Business department than go for Bentley (Waltham, MA).

Bentley rocks my world ;)!

I know that going to a religious affiliated school doesn't mean anything, but for some reason I just wouldn't want to go. Maybe i'm scared i'll offend people. I despise organized religion myself, I feel it turns people into slaves. I do believe in a God, however.

Advertising baby! I want to make TV commercials, and then gradually move onto television production. Depending on how many connections I make maybe i'll make a movie one day. We'll see.

I've told all my religion teachers I'm an atheist and they don't care. The only one who does is my math teacher whos very fire and brimstone. Its kinda scary.

You know, my house is a 15 minute (roughly) drive from Bentley. It's got a nice, small campus, and the area I find is nice. I'm out in Watertown by the way. But I like this area. It's a great area to go to school in according to a friends girlfriend at BU.

I like big cities.

University of Washington, Seattle. My Uncle goes there, he loves it.

I'm sure it's great, but I like being relatively close to home. It's more economical, no flights involved.

I have a friend who goes to Syracuse

Well, then you're down to basically Boston, New York, or maybe Pittsburg or Philadelphia
