Price is not an issue.
Just - which is the better program

My daughter definitively IS going to grad school.

4.0 average. some AP classes

Choices:

University of Cincinnati (accepted into the Honors Program)
Purdue

It’s so hard to find ANY comments in the threads here or ANYwhere.

For some reason she is really interested in viruses and bacteria.
She has in mind developing medicines such as anti-biotics (She wants to use her science to help people).

But its all prospective - she could end up a pharmacist (is going to be a tech this summer at Mom’s request), or who knows what, she has little real world experience.

She is a great problem solver, always notices if something is amiss, is always one step ahead figuring out cases, etc on NCIS, Psych, etc.

FWIW - accepted but she is turning down: Illinois (UIUC)- Her first choice, but they only gave her $3k. I see that it’s hightlyl rated, but can we justify it…
