Hi, I would like some opinions on the colleges I’m in between to possibly help me make a decision. Right now, I’m between Ohio state, university of Florida, and university of Georgia (all out of state). Ohio state and uga are around the same cost with scholarships (around 30k/yr) whereas UF is 39k. However, there is this new bill that could give me in state tuition for having grandparents in Florida making it cost 16k. I’m just not sure if it will pass. Regardless, I am stuck on which college to go to. I visited Ohio state and LOVED it. I loved the campus so much and the street and the surrounding areas. I also got into the health science scholars program which gives me a small community and helps me in my field of interest. I haven’t visited uga but it seems beautiful and a good town. I’m just concerned about the emphasis on Greek life bc In college I want the option to decide if I want to join rather than feel pressured. I visited UF which I liked sort of, but did not love. I felt cold vibes there and didn’t love the town. However, I know the ranking is the best out of these three at #30 vs osu at #53 and uga at #47. UF is also a school that has many in Greek life. I am also Jewish and would love to join a Hillel but know that hillel isn’t that strong at uga as very little students are Jewish. (Also just to throw this out there’s also Tulane and umiami but these would be more expensive options and I don’t think it’s worth the debt). also If the Florida grandparent bill passes, it seems like the obvious choice bc it will be way less money, but something about it I didn’t love and I felt more comfortable and at home at Ohio state. This is basically where I’m at so I would love to hear input and opinions about these schools.
