Don’t underestimate Houston it is a up and coming city with incredible diversity and thriving arts. Wait till you see the Rice campus in person but stay overnight at Rice and Duke very different culture decide which you like. One other thing to add to your list is weather. CMU cold damp winters, Duke less cold winters Rice maybe never wear a coat winters but 90’s and humid first couple weeks school. Also Rice not that interested in college sports but very invested in intermural rivalry sports but division one, woman’s basketball was un top 25 this year. Have no idea if CMU even does division 3. Do the college admitted days and stay over night. By the way Houston very easy to fly too two world class airports. Where do you fly into Duke and how far is the campus from the airport ? I think Duke much more traditional frat oriented old boy kind of vibe. Rice much more quarky and iconoclast. Both rice and CMU have good art schools and music schools. Can’t really speak for Duke never been there other then my old college room mate was from there and bad mouthed it. Daughter wasn’t interested you know she didn’t like the person who did their presentation.She is at rice and she applied to CMU.
