<p>artsykern - No school can really promise you any type of future but both Duke and NU are highly respected schools so with some effort on your part you will likely succeed after graduation. Duke and NU do have different personalities however, and while you could like them both, at which school would you rather live for four years? One is southern and one is midwestern and while they are both national/international universities, a good portion of their students do come from those respective areas. I would think more about the school’s personality and where they are located if all else is equal to you.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
