BU v Fordham v Waitlist??

I would just appreciate weighing some pros/cons.

Here is my situation:

Accepted to Fordham at Lincoln Center
Accepted to UConn Storrs
Accepted to Syracuse U
Rejected from Boston University with a GUARANTEED transfer for next year
Priority Waitlist at Carnegie Mellon
Waitlisted at Middlebury College
Waitlisted at Smith College

I’m a high-achieving student in science, specifically biological sciences, and I’d like to end up doing something in biotech or genetics.

I’m very low income, that’s why an option for me is community college or somewhere cheap for a year while working then transfer to BU.

I want to stay heavily involved in technical theatre like I’ve been all 4 years of high school, because that’s another career pathway I could see myself taking.

Fordham’s location and theatre connections are great, science is good as well (visiting in early April)
BU’s science programs are spectacular, and I toured and liked it apart from how the campus was laid out
I thought I loved Smith, and I’d be happy there, but I’m starting to lean away from it

If people could just share some experiences/knowledge, I’d really appreciate it. I’m a first-generation college student and daughter of a single parent, and we’ve been struggling throughout the whole college process :confused:

Thank you in advance! :slight_smile:
