Agreed.</p>
<p>Even without the perks of the Robertson, I don’t think Duke is worth $200,000 more than UNC-Chapel Hill. And even if you were getting great financial aid from Duke, I’d still argue that the UNC Robertson is a far bigger opportunity than Duke is alone.</p>
<p>If you’re planning to go to grad school, why not see if your parents might be willing to save some of the money they were going to be spending on Duke and put it towards grad school or other opportunities? $200k is a lot of money saved that you or your family could use for other things.</p>
<p>Of course, with the Robertson you’ll also be a Duke student. You can even go to Duke basketball games if you want to, take an unlimited number of classes at Duke, even live there for a semester.</p>
<p>Any resource you can get as a Duke student – e.g. access to a professor or access to the Duke alumni association – you can also get as a UNC Robertson. And for free.</p>
