I am an international student so cannot visit, and am pretty confused. Which of the two would be better in terms of overall prestige ( i am an international so it matters to me), repute of the Economics/Mathematics department ( I want to go to grad school for economics) ? I am not a party animal, but would want to live in a happening place with good fun on weekends. Also housing and social life ? My concern with Mcgill is with the moving off campus after the first year. Doesn’t that dent the college experience somewhat ? My concern with Brandeis is the jewishness of the place and the supposedly ugly campus. Would appreciate any advice.
