Book your trip, wherever you go, through a campus rep. Travel companies like Sun Slpash Tours usually have an undergrad rep if you go to a large enough school. I did this my senior year - I went through a kid that was in a large fraternity and in the engineering school. Everyone in his fraternity booked their trip threw him, and so did independent engineering students, and a few other people. If enough people book through the rep, usually the travel company will upgrade the rep's bookings. Everyone that booked with this kid was upgraded THREE times, moving from this motel outside of Cancun proper that I don't even think had a pool to this three star resort that was within walking distance of the main part of Cancun.

And I recommend Cancun IF you're not going during the main two weeks of spring break. Pitt's spring break is always the week before most schools, and enough kids from a few other schools were down to fill all the clubs but it was not obnixously crowded.
I definitely agree. One of my sisters is a rep for Student City Travels and its so much better going through stuff with her than having to figure out hotel reservations and airline times on my own.

I'm definitely excited for Acapulco though. I've been to Cancun when I was 15, and it was during the summer with my parents and a friend, so I know its like 100% different during spring break. But thats the only part of Mexico I've been to. I went to Aruba two summers ago, I think that'd be an awesome spring break place. Is anyone going there??
