    Hey there!

    I just graduated high school, and in a few weeks I will begin classe at Bentley University. I chose this school for a number of reasons but all I you need to know is that it was the right (perfect) school for me.

    My advice to you is don't limit your school choices to schools with the greatest reputation. AKA the Ivies. There are over a thousand colleges out there, and you should give them all a chance! There are only eight Ivies (Brown, Cornell, Columbia, Dartmouth, Harvard, Princeton, UPenn and Yale) and yes they are all great colleges but I have a number of friends who were accepted to Ivy schools but chose not to attend them. Some colleges they chose to attend instead were MIT, Johns Hopkins and Villanova. They didn't let the name of the schools be a factor in their decision!

    Don't get me wrong, maybe one of the Ivy schools will be the perfect school for you, but don't limit yourself! Good Luck!
