I went shopping almost every week, I went out and partied at least four nights a week, and I still managed to make honors in my Economics major. Now I am headed to New York to work in a consulting firm. The University of Chicago has changed my life in every way imaginable -- it isn't just a school, but a four-year experience that is at the same time surprising, exhilarating, wonderful, horrifying, grueling, but SO worth it at the end.By the way, the University of Chicago opens a LOT of doors. When I first came, I was disappointed that not a lot of "laymen" had heard of it. In elite or educated circles, however, everyone is as impressed with Chicago as they are with Brown, Stanford, and the like! Faculty Accessibility: A+, University Resource Use: C Have a Question?

The focus is very much academic, but people who say that there is no social life usually mean the social life isn't like it is at other schools. The student body is very friendly and quirky and although it is a high-powered academic school there is relatively little competition.I would come to Chicago if you're looking for more than just a degree, but rather a comprehensive (breadth and depth) education. Except to be challenged on every front. Education Quality: A+, Campus Maintenance: B+ Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
