How Much Did "Fit" Play a Role in Deciding Your College?

Just curious to see how much people took fit, social presence and atmosphere of a school into account when choosing which school to go to. I know trying to break into banking sometimes forces you to accept decisions from top schools but was wondering if school fit ever changed your mind on a school and your final decision.
