Hi all! I just wanted some input on whether I should choose UCLA or Johns Hopkins based on my circumstances. I’m interested in pursuing medical school in the future, but I would also like an undergrad degree that could get me a job just in case I am no able to be admitted to medical school. I have no preference for location and weather.

UCLA
-Major: Physics (Can I switch to engineering? Heard it’s impossible…)
-Estimated Cost of Attendance: $9,500 (received a lot of need-based aid)
-One hour away from home.

Johns Hopkins
-Major: Mechanical Engineering
-Estimated Cost of Attendance: $63,000 (received very little aid)
-On the opposite coast.
