Hello,

Just looking for some input from different people as I try to weight out my options… I’ve been accepted to both Emerson and American. Emerson has been my dream school for the past 4 years and there was never a doubt in my mind that I wanted to go there. However, I applied to American at last minute because I figured I would want to consider D.C. and I like traveling there.

Once both accepted me, I looked more into American and realized how great it is. They gave me a huge financial aid package and I am still waiting on Emerson’s.

But can anyone give any advice or comment in regard to the “American vs. Emerson” situation. I love Boston and DC and American is definitely better academically but Emerson would give me SO much more experience in the field than American would.

Oh yeah, my major is Broadcast Journalism.

Thanks in advance,
Ryan
