  1. Are both affordable? if not go with the one you can attend without hardship/debt.

  2. I would view the two schools as peer institutions academically, but they will be very different in terms of your overall college experience. BU has no real campus but it is in the heart of Boston, while UW will give you a traditional campus experience (ex. big time sports, etc.) and Madison is supposed to be a lovely college town. How do you want to spend the next four years?
