<p>Wisse, what are you looking to major in? UR has a Top 25 undergraduate B-school and just completed a $35 million renovation/expansion of their science building. Improving the sciences has been a big issue over the last few years. I think the current quality of education there is well ahead of its reputation.</p>
<p>I would try to work a deal with your parents. Go to UR for free and if you don’t get scholarships for grad school, then they can help pay for that from the money they saved by you going to UR.</p>
