I always thought it was weird that Willow would choose UC Sunnydale over Harvard Yale and wherever else she got in; kinda breaks the suspension of disbelief. I guess they had to make that happen to keep her as part of the show, though.
I don't know why they had Buffy getting into Northwestern, either; it didn't make sense and ended up being pointless.
