If you could choose...Stanford, Georgetown or Princeton

Neither of those 3. Look at Vandy. Great coaches, great city (Nashville), great campus, great team.

WOW... totally disagree. Palo Alto may be a little expensive, yes. But nonetheless it is an amazing area with many things to do.

Similar boat and same conclusion. Maybe I'm one of your close coaching friends? Keep in mind the Dartmouth coach thinks highly enough of Georgetown to send his daughter there.

I was going to mention Vanderbilt also. Great academics and a rising team. It might be alluring to be a part of a rising team rather than a school that has already seen success.

Anyone who says Georgetown is a huge step below the other two needs a serious reality check. This is undergrad people....Georgetown is without a doubt one of the most prestigious and well respected schools in the world.

Georgetown, Stanford, Princeton, Dartmouth , Villanova, UVA, Vanderbilt, Columbia are all schools that provide great women's programs/ top academics/ nice campus

Georgetown is a great school for academics, running and a social life; however, if she can get into Princeton or Stanford, G'Town drops off the list. Stanford is a more intense running environment, they will probably be chasing a national XC tiles this year and this athlete may be expected to contribute right away. Both schools are similar in many ways, I think her decision comes down to what she want's in terms of running and her personality. If she has been developing slowly and is coming from a small school/town evionmement, D1 big conference athletics may not be to her liking.

Stanford Social Life= 0

Georgetown is not in the Top 100 on the 2012 Shanghai rankings.

Princeton and Stanford are racist against Asians and apply a 20% numerical quota today similar to their former ANTI-SEMITIC Jewish quotas up until the 1920s.

I am fairly certain there is not one sub 4:50 girl with an Asian last name.

How does Georgetown drop off the list? Didn't they win nationals last year? Where did Stanford place?

It's the 1920s again wrote:

It's undergrad not grad school

I don't think G'Town will be chasing a title this year and traditionaly they bring along athletes at a slower pace as compared to Stanford.

Well you have interesting picks, cause the Georgetown coach is going to stanford. This makes your decision easier I hope

Link? Is that a rumor or is Coach Milt to Stanford a done deal. I know Stanford has an opening so this thought actually entered my mind earlier in the summer. It would be a huge loss for Georgetown.

how about Villanova, or vandy btw

Princeton - distance coach is ummm... into college girls

Stanford - doesn't have a coach

Georgetown - doesn't have a track

DUKE!! Don't forget Duke!!

I won't go to a racist school.

My parents are from a country with never ending tribal conflicts and wars.

I don't care about Georgetown, Duke, since they are not on the Shanghai Top 20.

My conselor says Princeton, Yale, USC, and Stanford are racist and have Apartheid Admissions Boards which select applicants based on racial groups based on the tastes of Old Fart the board members.

Do you know which other Top 20 schools have Apartheid Admissions Boards ?

Thanks.

HAVE to look at Vanderbilt. Breakthrough team that just added two low 4:40s girls... can't really go wrong there...

Done deal- heard new AD Muir requested Milt from their days together on the hilltop- announcement soon?

Stanford has won 103 NCAA Championships, 2nd most in the NCAA, behind UCLA with 110.

At the 2012 London Olympics, Stanford won 16 medals, 3rd in the NCAA behind USC 25, and Cal 19.
