I was also accepted into the program and UO, and it looks like its going to be my acceptance. I was waitlisted for both programs at UWashington so if I get in there, I want to make it work since it's my dream school. But I'm not sure how likely that is, so I will be committing to Oregon. I'm at CU Boulder and a good friend lives in Eugene and loves it. I heard the grad education program is great. Also -- I just heard that Frontier opened new flights to Eugene. There are seasonal (start in May) but are MUCH less... I think a one way ticket in May was around $100. I've also heard its cheaper to fly into Portland and there is a train you can take to Eugene if you are really trying to cut down on airfare and don't mind a couple hour train ride.
