The University of Chicago

I'm writing this to warn potential undergraduate applicants from attending this horrible (undergraduate) institution. Come here for graduate school, that's what they care about. Unless you're an econ major, then come here. As a consequence of this school I became a worse student, person, citizen, and spiritual being. I regret my decision to come and to stay every day. It's terrible. I wasted time and money. There were many better schools I could have gone to. Instead, I've lowered my career prospects by staying at a school not designed to help its undergraduate students. If you really want to go to a school where your work will be rewarded properly, choose a liberal arts institution - I wish I did. These larger research universities are straight lying when they claim the school offers all of the advantages of a liberal arts university. UChicago is a classic example of why liberal arts colleges exist. Unless you're an absolute shark who really forces yourself toward opportunities, the school DOES NOT CARE.
