My decision has pretty much come down to Nova and IU Bloomington. After aid/scholarships, money isn’t really a factor. What do you guys think? I’m going to visit both in the coming weeks, and that will have a big effect on my decision.

From what I’ve concluded on the internet…

Pros for IU:


Direct admit to business school
Beautiful campus/area
Seems like a better social atmosphere
Sports (this is important to me)


Pros for Nova:


Overall, is the superior academic school
Proximity to Philly
Much closer to home. Easier and less expensive transportation.
Sports


Is there anything else I should know about Nova, or IU? What are the people like? How are the facilities? Weather? What’s Nova’s campus like?

Also, what are your guys opinions on each school’s size in regards to students? I want to go to a big school, but I don’t know if 7.500 (Nova) is too little, or 40,000 (IU) is too large.

Thanks in advance.
