<p>Hello sybbie719. Yes, I have explained it to each school I’ve been accepted to.</p>
<p>The main issue with choosing a school is balancing the strength of the particular programs I’m interested in, and the costs of attendance. If I am unable to perform adequate research in my field of interest during undergrad, I may not be able to attend a decent graduate school for my specific topic that will pay me a decent stipend and possess enough resources to fund my dissertation research. So attending the right undergraduate program is critical to admissions for the correct grad program for me.</p>
