Which college to go to?

Hi all,

I recently received notification that I've been waitlisted at the University of Michigan for the school of Literature, Science and the Arts as I want to go into pre-med. I can be notified anytime between May 15 to the end of June whether or not they can admit me. However, I am not sure where to send my deposit in the mean time.
I've been accepted to Lyman Briggs, a prestigious science program offered at Michigan State University, and I've also received an offer from DePaul University. At this point, I'm not sure if I should go the route of going to DePaul because of its big-city environment (which I favor) and fairly strong academics, compared to an in-state public institution. I know I'd be happier at DePaul because of its environment, but is it worth paying the extra $15,000? Please reply to me and offer any suggestions. It would be greatly appreciated!

$15,000/year or total estimate?

If you want to go pre-med you should probably go to the cheaper one if it means staying out of debt, but if money is no issue go for the one you think you'd be happier at.
