Would it be THAT different if I went to a college 12 hours from home as opposed to a college 6 hours from home?

It’s something to consider cost-wise. Being within driving or train/Amtrak distance can be much cheaper than having to fly between home and college. If the college is rural and/or not near an airport, you’d have to tack on additional time and expense. A lot of students attending college relatively far from home prefer to leave their stuff in storage over the summer rather than move it back and forth, so include that in financial calculations as well.
