To everyone reading, I wanted some advice and hopefully experiences that would help me out. First off, i have been in the ib programme and have worked my ass off, (4.7 gpa, 29 act, tons of community service, etc). I have been with my boyfriend for 4 years, and we have an amazing relationship. We are both high school sweethearts, and he is going to ucf on a football scholarship. Recently (this school year) my parents separated and he really helped me heal and we have grown even closer. I am between two schools: fsu and ucf. I am looking to go into pre-med, and i like both campuses but they have pros and cons. I have always liked fsu better, but i am emotionally scared that I will not be able to handle the distance between my boyfriend and I (4 hours) and i know if i went to ucf, i would still not see him that much since he has a TIGHT schedule but just the thought of him being there would help me. However, FSU had been a college I was excited to get into. Here are my pro’s and cons for each. Fsu pro’s: love campus, rooming with a friend from childhood, feels like college to me, has the school spirit element that ucf lacks (big rivalry that is a nationwide known school), feels out of state and i wish i could go out of state Cons: i have heard there is not as good med program as ucf, away from my boyfriend, not much to do in tally. UCF pro’s: good med program, recieving slightly more financial aid, good location (ucf so near many different things and disney, universal, etc), rooming with a good friend if went, very nice campus, my boyfriend attending, and i am also applying for the honors program. cons: seems as less school spirit, easier to get into which makes ib seem less worth it, and it doesn’t feel like a traditional college like fsu. I just am scared about how i will do, and i am scared that i will be miserable at fsu and always be wanting to see him instead of focusing on myself. However, i know i do like fsu slightly more for it’s prestige but is it worth it?
