I wanted to go to UC San Diego or University of Miami or University of British Columbia. I was accepted at UCSD and UM, but not at UBC (it was during the Vietnam war and they had enough Americans already in Canada). I ended up at Miami because my parents moved to South America and it was much closer to where they were.
For graduate school I wanted to go to Harvard but didn’t get in. I ended up at University of Florida.
My brother went to Princeton and once I visited him there I realized that it would have been a much better school for me than UM, but that was 20–20 hindsight.
BTW, my mother was accepted at Stanford and Rice and turned them both down because the atmosphere on campus was wrong for her, and because there were too many nerds. She ended up at University of Colorado at Boulder.
Both Stanford and UCLA are highly ranked schools (their PhD programs in Linguistics are ranked 2 and 3 nationally), but, to be honest, it doesn’t matter quite so much which you go to for your undergraduate work. Your choice for a graduate school will be more important to your future career.
If money is no object the fact that Stanford is a private school and thus more expensive won’t matter. For me, a real negative is that Stanford is located in Palo Alto, which is not my favorite city. OTOH, UCLA is located in LA, also not my favorite city. I greatly prefer Santa Barbara or San Diego, although I grew up in Berkeley.
Whichever you choose make the most of it. Keep on getting those good grades and you will be able to pick and choose which graduate school you go to.
