College Choices

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON
Seattle 
Founded in 1861, UW is one of the oldest universities on the West Coast and features one of the most highly regarded medical schools in the world. This school is an elected member of the Association of American Universities, and its research budget is among the highest in the U.S. It has both a traditional mascot (Harry the Husky) and also a live one (Dubs)! The setting of the campus is also very pretty. I like that in the spring, cherry blossoms bloom making the campus even more attractive.

NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY
Illinois 
Bordered by the Great Lake and a global city, NU ranks #12 for national university and #19 for school of medicine. ~ 51% of undergraduates receive a NU scholarship, which does not need to be repaid. Evanston has beaches, shops, and restaurants to explore with just a train ride away to the city. NU's Feinberg School of Medicine is on the Chicago campus and is adjacent to several closely affiliated hospitals. The neighborhood contains a combination of hotels, restaurants, professional office centers, medical facilities, and cultural venues. NU is a large university with a comprehensive doctoral program and attracts over $550 million in sponsored research each year.

UNIVERISTY OF NOTRE DAME
Indiana
The campus looks amazing. I like its Gothic architecture and park like landscape, exquisite outdoor sculpture,and breathtaking views. It is dedicated to religious beliefs no less than scientific knowledge. Their students come from all over the U.S. and 100+ countries. ND offers rigorous academics, NCAA D1 athletics, and events/activites to create an environment for students to have opportunities to do good.
