    One thing about Cornell’s freshman housing - I think they changed it to random assignment two years ago. There is program houses with different themes(music, sustainability, lgbtq+ etc.) that you can apply if you wish to live in one of them. Otherwise the process is random.

    Hi Domonique, I'm so excited for this serie! I'm an incoming first-year at Harvard, so I would love to know what advice any of the panelists have for first-years navigating an Ivy environment. Thank you sm;)

      The first thing Harvard teaches you is to look down on others by looking down on you! Oops 😬 I wasn’t supposed to let the cat 🐈 out of the bag.

    As a college student that doesn’t attend an Ivy, I have always wondered this myself. There’s a stigma that other colleges are less than and it’s humbling to know Ivy Leagues aren’t “all that” . Thank you for making this video I really enjoyed it ❤️

    thought the opening introductory clips of each student were super cute!
    maybe for future videos, you could have like little nametags (name + school) for each student during the conversation? sometimes i got confused about each student's name and school....

  • @kirkyklee7828

    Question: I’m curious about why each person chose to go to the college of their choice. Like did anything specifically set one school apart from others? And also about their experiences overall in each school

    • @gorgeouspencils599
      @gorgeouspencils599 4 роки тому +1

      Well one thing is that they may not have had other options. The people whom chose to go to Brown, Columbia, Dartmouth, maybe even UPenn might not have had the option to go to Harvard, Princeton, or Yale. Also, money is a huge factor for most. Besides that, there are many other possible reasons why they chose their specific college.

    • @gorgeouspencils599
      @gorgeouspencils599 3 роки тому

      @Mohammad Ayman I said it could be A REASON. I never said it was the only reason considering they are all fantastic schools. Columbia's acceptance rate is 5.9, Brown's acceptance rate is 7.7, Dartmouth's acceptance rate is 8.7, and UPenn's acceptance rate is 8.4. Harvard (4.7) and Princeton (5.5) are lower than them all. Many people can be accepted into one and not into others which inevitably factors into where they go. There are obviously other factors, so I would never say that people go to a school solely because they may have been rejected from another one, but it is a reason for some people which is why I listed it in response to Kirky Klee asking why some people choose the college they choose.

    Could you ask the individuals of their motivations and strategies in getting into their Ivy League schools? Like obviously not a full how-to guide but maybe some basic tips for aspiring students (and show how it's not impossible to get accepted hehe)
    Again thank you for this fabulous content, can't wait for Friday's conversation!

    How do you balance your social life and schoolwork? Are the courses rigorous or manageable? Do you have many options for your courses? Especially in these top schools, do you have time to socialize and make friends? How many courses do you take? Is your schedule flexible? How much time do you spend every day on homework? Where do you typically study or do schoolwork? Are your dorms nice and safe?
