Hello everyone-
I'm a cross country runner in California and i am having serious issues choosing a college. I have been offered scholarships to Stanford, Duke, UCLA, UC Berkley, and University of Virginia. I have visited and met with the coaches of all three schools and I am torn. If anyone has any feedback about these programs and also the schools outside of running please let me know... and i'll list a few of my concerns:
1) My grades are good but definitely not good enough to get in to these schools if i was a regular person applying, will I be able to handle Stanford or Duke with xc and track?
2) coaching situation at UCLA
3) this might be a stupid question but which school has the best social scene in your opinion( the free time i do have, i would like to spend well)
