In this video I talk about everything I love about UChicago (aka my favourite things about UChicago / how UChicago students are like / things you should know about UChicago before coming here / things I likeabout UChicago / things I did not expect about UChicago / expectations vs. reality (sort of)).
From UChicago students and how vocal and open we are, to resources and support on campus, and even brand name and alumni network --- I cover a few of my thoughts on my experience at UChicago :)
P.s. WE HIT 7K WHAT!! Also keep your eyes peeled for episode 2 of College Review Live ☻ You can find my form "itschloetan Livestream: College Apps Special💕✨" at: form.jotform.com/201788439037160
📌 T I M E S T A M P S
0:20 How it feels talking to people on campus, how conversations go, and general student culture (both academically and also sometimes socially)
2:58 UChicago having a strong sense of identity and solidarity as a school + what that means for you being a student and soon-to-be alumni!
5:53 UChicago’s reputation is amazing in the post-college world and amongst people outside of UC - You never have to worry about your abilities being doubted / second-guessed or coming off as someone who didn’t live up to certain standards by an employer :)
8:40 The vast variety of resources and how readily available they are + how the school really steps up and tries to provide for their students as much as possible - advisors will give you individualised advice and you always feel like you CAN do things
13:01 Our campus is very vocal, but not in a negative or abrasive way - being able to have cool conversations with differing opinions without myopic mindsets is a standard / norm and oftentimes you’ll end up learning something new + seeing things in a new way
A short note on competitiveness - in short, UChicago IS competitive, but in a way that makes you feel motivated and positive, not depressed and pressurised and bleak
Hope you enjoyed this video, and comment down below what you would like to see next :)

🙆🏻♀️ MUSIC I USED:
In-app music within VLLO (mainly Spring and Chill playlists~)
‼️BLACK LIVES MATTER, even though the protests seem to be no longer a "hot topic" and media coverage is decreasing. The problem is NOT solved, our attention span has simply lapsed.
I try not to talk politics on this channel (follow my ig if you want my thoughts) -- but this is beyond "political". This is a legitimate hazard and disaster for society.
Here are some resources for you to help: blacklivesmatters.carrd.co

As a rising senior in highschool, these videos were soooo helpful! I wish every college had videos like this lol
for sure!! me too :-; it would have made my college research process easier heeh
I JUST GOT ACCEPTED ON A FULL RIDE SCHOLARSHIP!!!!! Totally freaking out right now!!!
If if you dont mind saying, what were ur stats and extracurriculars? Or just extracurriculars cause stats wise its obvious that they have to be good.
@@IM-yu8tw well I got mostly all A’s but I hardly did any extracurriculars. My gpa was a 3.87 unweighted and 4.27 weighted? I got a 1240 on my SAT but Covid helped me out with not submitting those. It pretty much all came down to my writing skills and really good letters of recommendation from my teachers.
YESSS CONGRATSSSS!!! HOPE YOUR LOVING IT!!!!
*you’re
YAYYY
stress but make it ✨mutual✨
The best kind 👍
sharing is caring 😅
Idk what I'd do without your videos. So excited to finally go to UChicago in 2 months!!
YEEE get excited but also stay safe on campus :-; the rona is roaming
I’m applying to UChicago this fall and it’s my top choice because of your videos!
please do more research
No one:
Not even Chloe:
Me: likes before watching
👁👄👁
Same
💕💕💕💕
I love this video. Besides UChicago, I have been to several campuses, like Harvard, Yale, Brown, NYU etc. Somehow I just feel the students at UChicago are different from other schools. From the way they talk, attitude, even facial expressions they are different from the kids at H,Y etc. I couldn’t ping point exactly where the difference is. After watching this video, I seemed get it now.
Researching more and more about uchicago really makes it my dream school. I love how academically rigorous it is and how they encourage free thought. Ughh I think I might want to transfer or apply for grad school.
Thank you so much for making these videos!!! I feel a lot more knowledgeable about the school and prepared for the fall. I really appreciate it !!!!
you look so good! also in every 'uchicago' sitting-and-talking video or vlog of yours i just feel how much u like studying here and it really inspires me (even tho i don't rlly like my uni)
Thank you soooo much for the videos!!
And uh would you mind talking about like classes you really enjoyed and/or classes that are really unique? Or maybe things that make classes at UC different?
ooo I'd have to do a bit of research but for sure!! I was thinking of doing a how I chose my classes video first because I think the deadline for pre-registration is coming up~~ 🥰
itschloetan it is coming up! Please do that video!
This video was great! Thanks for all the info :)
I loved this!! Thank you 💖
As a current medical student who graduated from UChicago, I can attest to the resources. Having an office (UCIHP) dedicated towards students interested in medicine has been beyond helpful when it came to preparing for interviews as well as developing my application in a timely manner. I also have to mention that the work that we did as a student has also gone a long way when it comes to being used to the long study days of med school lol
daaam binge watching her vids!! bouta subscribe
Hhoooray waiting for more of your videossssss
Alright watching your videos I am really close to EDing to UChicago !!!
Thank you so much for this video!
great video! might share with incoming intl grad students (even though not everything is relevant)
I love your avatar! (I actually have a very similar one :) )
Singaporeans in U Chicago represent! RUclips algo is scary and freaky good at recommending videos.
Loved the video! I thought UChicago had solid placement in finance, so could you expand a bit more on your comments about that?
it has very strong alumni and quite a lot of them in recent years mainly! So there really isn't that massive emphasis of like multiple generation of finance alumni, but a good like 30% of uchicago grads go into finance / consulting i think --- for example morgan stanley new york has around 30 uchicago grads in the ED level and under (this is just my estimate it could be more)
What do you think about going to UChicago for a stem major like biology? I feel like your insight is really great for econ majors but do you think your experience is applicable or similar to stem majors at UChicago?
This video was suuuuper helpful. I’m an accepted student trying to make a decision and wanting to go pre-med. Can I ask why you decided to not go pre-med?
You mentioned socially uncompetitive at one point and I was wondering if the rumors about the "abysmal dating scene" were true (direct words from a reddit forum I read once LOL)
HAHAHA WELL I can't say too much because I've met amazing peeps but that might depend on your circle / friends! Though I must say (and I know this is superficial but) #uchicagopretty is not really a thing anymore --- people here aren't like INSANELY beautiful (some are) but both girls/guys were all much more attractive than I was expecting hehehe
Hi! thank you for your videos! I had a question about the application: they let you submit a video essay, but I wasn't sure how that had to be. Should we narrate a personal essay in the video? Or show videos of us in an EC? A video montage of our high school? I was really confused haha
oooo that one's tough because I didn't do it! They implemented the policy the year after I applied -- try searching them up? But I think the rule of thumb is to create something that summarises you as a person! (If I did it I would film it/edit it it like Elle Wood's video in Legally blonde HAHAHA) --- try looking up some college app video profiles on YT i remember watching a few that were really funny & well done!
Thank you so much for that!
so if I have a low GPA at UChicago it is still a high standard overall? Thanks Itschloetan :)
AT 7:4 - BTW -Tuition fees of Columbia and U Chicago are similar and the admission rate of Columbia is lower than U Chicago.
In attending the student sessions UChicago has rlly promoted the Scav Hunt but I haven't seen you/others talk about it at all - is it really all that they make it out to be or is it just a tactic to strengthen the ~quirky~ brand image?
it's more like 30% of the school does it and is SUPER SUPER into it, and the rest of the school watches them and roots for them hahaha -- it's super fun and i want to do it at some point but it's also quite time consuming (same as the humans vs zombie hunt)
@@asynchloe thank you!!!! i would LOVE to see a video on it if you do end up participating 💖
LOW KEY regret not doing sat and apply to US schools now orzzz
How extreme is the amount of work? How much do you get to sleep?
What apps do you use for editing videos?
UChicago, arguably the most intellectual school in the US, both in the faculty and student body.
What is the weather like at Uchicago?
Now retired, I used to hire people, and Ms.Tan is correct -- if the applicant is from UChicago I can be sure he or she can cut it and meet a challenge.
Is LSE or UChicago better for Economics?
uhhh tough question because I only go to one -- I think LSE's reputation is solid, but UChicago econ is constantly evolving (and if i remember correctly I don't think LSE has changed their curriculum in decades, not sure tho) --- uchicago econ just added a business econ & data science specialisation, and there are more resources on application of econ to the real world. If you look at the rankings for econ majors (and I don't think the rankings matter too much but say you did) i believe UChicago is ranked higher than LSE? Try looking into the criteria for rankings & see what you value!!
itschloetan LSE is ranked higher for econ majors, but that’s really not what allures me. I’m more interested in how progressive and versatile the university is in terms of following the constantly evolving economic mindset. From reading your answer I suppose that LSE doesn’t fit this description because it hasn’t changed its syllabus. And, in particular, what really makes me very indecisive is the fascinating economic societies in both universities. I will have to contemplate on this for a bit longer😃 Anyways, thank you for responding! Always helpful✌️❤️
2:31? This is a hard cap, no one does that at uchicago, let alone in the reg
Peep the Barcelona flag :3
