These are 3 great choices.

Being located in the state capital, I like Macalester’s location the best. They take advantage of their location by making an internship in the Minnesota state legislature available as part of their Legislative Politics course. The cost is comparable to Carleton. You like Macalester the best. The St. Paul location offers a lot to do off campus. I see no reason why this wouldn’t be your first choice. I don’t see anything about American which would make it worth an extra $60,000 over 4 years.
