<p>Congratulations on 2 fantastic acceptances!</p>
<p>You can’t go wrong with either, but for what’s it worth - many years ago I had the same two choices (among others) and went to Cornell. Right after I graduated I joined an investment bank and spent the next 10+ years working in some of the world’s largest cities. I loved (love) city life, but I look back at my four years in little Ithaca as some of my fondest years. Cornell is no Manhattan, but once you’re on campus, it doesn’t feel nearly as rural as you would think that it does.</p>
<p>Good luck with your decision. You truly cannot go wrong either way.</p>
