What's your dream university/college? by KDurant_35 August 17, 2014 at 10:08 PM UTC

I, as an Asian, have kept my grades since freshmen year to A's only, and am pressured by my parents to go to a good school (not necessarily Ivy, as Caltech, Stanford, MIT aren't Ivy but still insanely good). 

If you're not in high school (or even middle school) yet, then I guess just say what you wanna be when you grow up. 

Me: Stanford University in California
Career: Aeronautical Engineer

Honestly depends on what career path I choose, but I would really like to go to Baylor University or NYU.

Oxford, cambridge or MIT.

I have seen both cambridge and oxford IRL.

MIT, I have not seen, but I have heard good rumours about it from my relatives who graduated from there.

You asked me what I want to be when I get older, my answer is happy. I want to be happy when I grow up, but as jobs go, I want to be a medical scientist when I grow up, like come up with cures for diseases etc etc.

It's all a matter of how much college costs at that point.  If it's the same as it is now, I'd go to whatever school I want, likely something such as Carnegie, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, or Stanford. 

If it's gotten higher or worse, I'd just go to Oklahoma State University in my home town.

Glad to see that there's people aiming high with Stanford, Oxford, and MIT and other top colleges! 
@WordlessGeek: I like your answer ;)

I really don't know. I live near both Cambridge and Oxford.

I guess it's what you want to do as a career.

If lawyer or some kind of literature field = Oxford all the way

Yup, I went to Stanford's and they said the same thing: "Need-based aid". But the lady said that if your parents have a salary of more than about 100K, then there's less of a chance (unless you have multiple children in college and need aid to pay for all of them).
