HELP: Columbia (CC) vs. Cornell (CAS)

<p>I sort of second what Doby said. It’s a lot harder to live in a rural city during your working years - you have to be near jobs! So in about 4 years, you will probably be spending the rest of your life in a large city, probably NYC. You’ve grown up there, you’ll live there after graduation - why not take a break?</p>

<p>I’m sure it will be a weird transition (it was for me, and I came from a city not nearly as big as NYC), but you’ll get to experience a whole new type of living. See what it’s like to be able to walk around parks and gorges for a change, enjoy it for four years, then go back to NYC where you belong. Think of it as a vacation :)</p>
