The University of Rochester

All in all, I loved the University of Rochester. Like many of my classmates, I had been rejected by and Ivy and had gotten a huge financial aid package to lure me to UR. The worst thing about Rochester is the weather. Everything else is good. Rochester is a good place for self motivated people. If you want everything handed to you on a platter, do not go here. A lot of people have said that UR's social life sucks but I simply did not find this to be true. I was involved in a lot of groups and had something to do any time I wanted. Even though UR is not considered a party school there always seemed to be a party going on. Academics are top notch and profs are great if you take advantage of office hours and actually get to know them. Rochester is a great little town that has a lot to offer if you get out and explore. All in all, I wouldn't change anything about my experience.
