Stanford University

Best Time of My Life!

The people, the community, the facilities, professors and location all make Stanford more than a dream come true. I have no regrets and thoroughly enjoy my time here. I will miss it when I graduate.

Lots of Friendliness

I was very worried my first day about not fitting in or feeling alone but those worries quickly abandoned me when I found everyone to be very friendly. Everyone who I met was very happy to be here and excited to share their wisdom with me.

Amazing

I adored my experience. I was challenged intellectually and though I came in with a lot of expectations for Stanford, I was blown away.

On the more superficial end of things, waking up in January and riding my bike through the quad in 70 degree weather while all the other elite schools were steeped in snow was a golden experience. The campus is beautiful, and the people are more attractive than at other elite schools.

More importantly, professors are stupendous and approachable. You are surrounded by other remarkably intelligent people and discover that for the first time you can hold intellectual conversations and feel understood and not judged. You intellectual interest change as your intellectual pursuits grow.

Stanford will spoil you time and time again and when you leave for grad school like me, you'll realize that Stanford is the most unique place of learning in the world.
