Hampshire is going to be the more rigorous of the two, but not by an order of magnitude.
Hampshire is not likely to give you better financial aid.

If your mom is genuinely willing to pay the differential for the slightly more rigorous degree (without making your life heck by hounding you to appeal for more aid), I would go with Hampshire. If not, I would go for Guilford. It’s beautiful, the Quaker tradition has a lot to offer, the weather will be nicer, and you probably won’t end up on Fox News.
