Worth it
Do a lot of research and ask questions on your own and try your best to figure out your goals early on and then Stanford will get you there. But you got to know what you want first, which can take a while to figure out.

Competitive school
For HS students interested in Stanford, know that Stanford looks at more than just your grades. You need some extra-curricular activities in your resume. You need to be a solid citizen.

Greatest University
If it is the right place for you, Stanford is the greatest University in the country. The students realize there is much more to life than school, and still pursue school, and their other interests with passion. We have our fun, and you have to create your own social life at times, it won't just happen. Be sure to visit wherever you go, and make sure that you're at a school that makes you (not parents or others) happy.

Amazing time of my life
Having been admitted into Harvard, Princeton, Wharton and Cambridge, I picked Stanford. It was the most amazing time of my life. I met many wonderful people and was pushed. The experience really varies depending on what you want to get out of your 4 (in my case, 3) years.

Amazing University
This is an amazing university. It is a wonderful place to be. The campus is huge, which means you have to get a bike. However, academics-wise, this place is wonderful and inspiring. Lots of caring students too -- and public service opportunities abound. I will definitely recommend this place to all hard working students.

Come here
Stanford will expose you to dimensions of the world you won't find in many other places. Having lunch with a professor who has made groundbreaking contributions to his or her field is a humbling yet common occurrence. If you have the opportunity to come here, I strongly suggest you take it.
