Absolutely no way those other schools are worth the extra money. You need to understand that the job market is BOOMING in the South and of course the jobs that are coming here have to be leaving somewhere right? That somewhere is the Midwest. The reason being is that the quality of living is simply better down here in big metro areas like Atlanta and Birmingham. The cost of living is cheaper and the weather is nicer year round. With that said, why should you take the merit aid Bama will give you and come to Bama? This trend of jobs moving south will not end any time in the near or not too distant future. It used to be that if you wanted one of those high paying jobs in the Midwest, you went to a Big Ten school for the alumni connections. Now a days it is all about going to an SEC, or even ACC school, because they are the bosses of the companies and job market that dominate this region. It is like this all over the United States. But if you want to get the best job, you have to come south. But if you come south and want to get that job, you better be a graduate from a great business school at places like Bama, UGA, UF, or Vandy.
