I was accepted to Georgia Tech and Ohio State, and I’m caught between these two schools. For Georgia Tech, I was accepted into the biomedical engineering major which I know is a really good program. For OSU, I was accepted into the biomedical engineering pre-major, and I would have to apply for the major at the end of freshman year. If I was only going off of academics, I think Georgia Tech would be my obvious choice, but I’m not sure if I will stick to biomedical engineering. If I go to Georgia Tech, I feel like I would have to major in something related to engineering, because that’s what it’s mostly known for whereas at OSU, I feel like I could major in anything and not feel obligated to major in specifically one field.

Georgia Tech (oos) is $15k more expensive every year than OSU (in state), so cost is a factor, but my parents only care about rankings so to them cost doesn’t matter. I’m in the Honors program at OSU, but I haven’t heard about Honors for Georgia Tech.

After college I think I want to go to medical school or graduate school, so that is also a factor in my decision.

Tbh, at the end of the day, I’m just scared and nervous to go to (any) college in general.
