NYU Stern [$91k, business] vs [Texas] A&M Engineering Undeclared [$21k] [wants CS major]

Woah @p0kes you’re all over the place, not giving us all the info.
You got into Eng Honors & University Honors (UH)? That makes a big difference.
UH requires freshman to live in Lechner or McFadden, UH dorms.
There IS specific Eng Honors housing in The Engineering Village/Commons, BUT you’ve almost certainly missed the boat for that, since you haven’t paid Housing deposit yet, and I think there was a deadline to apply for the Eng Village.
-remember that all freshman start out Gen Eng, so none have declared a specific major-

What’s the deadline to accept UH?
I see ZERO need to do 2 honors programs at A&M (UH isn’t that well thought of, certainly nothing like UT Plan II).

Here’s what I would suggest-
Accept UH-confirming you can pay Housing deposit and be guaranteed a bed.
IF that’s possible, also accept Brown Honors. Do both programs for freshman year, dump UH as soon as freshman year is over, continue with Eng Honors.

If you are NM, got into UH and Brown Eng Honors, I think you’ll be fine to get CompSci.
