I applied in early December and was accepted in mid-February. Still waiting to hear back from a few schools, but WUSTL looks like a great program. I've been a lurker on these boards for months and have heard little mention of WUSTL, which is strange because it seems that they hook their students up with great opportunities while in school and once they graduate. It seems heavily geared towards research, which is sort of a turn off for me considering I want to get into community and grassroots organizing, but it seems as though WUSTL's program is broad enough to accommodate me.
I hope to visit in a month, but have only driven through St. Louis once and know very little about it other than the cost of living is cheap and so is a lot of entertainment.
So, what's good in St. Louis?
