<p>Both are financially feasible. But the principle of an education that is valuable and will serve me well duirng my 4 years and after is most important. I just need to justify that extra money- if I get into Penn or Cornell or Notre Dame, I have an easier time justifying the higher tuition because those schools are more prestigious than UW and have strong reputations in the banking world. I’ve never been so sure about NYU though, it just has that rep of wealthy/underperforming kids, although no doubt there are plenty of excellent and motivated students at NYU.</p>
